When will you realize? (x 4) This is the year that we all live in fear For there's no use for you and i And it's somebody's dream Automatic machine That is run from a central cell And you'll see That the tape is so red That it bleeds And it takes care of everyone's needs Till they die! This is the day you should wake up and say You'll discover what's going down Because maybe you're thinking that life's everlasting But no There's something wrong When you're sure That the odds are all stacked on your side But you're only along for the ride You want out (?) When will you realize? (x 4) This is the hour as it starts to turn sour And you find out that love's a sad game This is the moment You're losing Confusing That same old sympathy But you carried on And you danced till the guests had all gone There was no one to carry you home You're alone All alone When will you realize? (x 4)
