Slipping away Are we sleeping at the wheel and unaware now Has the population put us in a trance now Overtaken by the tide and washed away now What do you say now In a daze Are we moving in the motion of the crowd now Slowly losing everything we were about now Is it time to draw a line in the sand now And take a stand now
Somebody talk to me Am I all alone When are we gonna wake up
Chorus Are we numb Is the feeling gone Tell me what went wrong Are we numb Close your eyes Let the world past by Now you're hypnotized Are we numb
Moving away From the heart of everything we tried to be now Just stop, look and tell me what you see now We've been taken like the winds across the sea now We've gotta break free now Mesmerized, desensitized before my eyes I'm paralyzed
Somebody talk to me Am I all alone When are we gonna wake up
Chorus
We're drifting We're dreaming We're floating away
So many times we just watch pass by The tick tock of life leaving us hypnotized Mesmerized a stun gun leaving you in a daze Better wake up now before you find yourself slipping away
Song Description: 'When I see people, especially believers, who live their lives accepting the message that the culture around them is shouting, it really scares me. As a band, we have an opportunity and a responsibility from the stage to help kids wake up to the fact that they can't just live life on cruise control. We have to be proactively turning to the Word of God to shape our minds, our beliefs, and our passions. Otherwise we become numb and ineffective.' - Michael Tait
