One day at a time now, to figure out my mind
Rigorous mind games of American kind
Get out, stand up, give us something to believe in

Find me, pick me up now
I know it's not another dead end ride

I have seen and I have tasted all that you have shown
I have followed, I have led and this is what I know
You have nothing I need
Can't you see that this is something to be taken serious?

You have set us up to fail

Step out face what you know
The door is wide open
Unknown is the next day
Give me passion
I know that you don't see the same
This is harder than it seems
I know that you don't see the same as me but we do agree on this

Instinct speaks loudest
Guidance from the heart
I have seen and I have tasted all that you have shown
I have followed I have led and this is what I know
You corrupt the innocent and smile, laughing as you go

You have nothing I need
Tear me down
Build me up
