Fight Or Flight

We're ready to go 
Ticking like a bomb that's about to blow 
It's taking control 
Pulling at your feet like an undertow 
You don't really know 
If you're all that capable 
But you've been told 

Figure it out 
Don't pretend you're stupid 
Sort it out 
Go make yourself useful 

You're better than dead 
You really made a mess with the words you said 
So easily fed 
The flames of the fire rise above your head 
They want to be led 
You've joined the ranks instead 
There's a voice in your head 

I can't figure it out 
Any more than the generation before me 
I can't figure it out 
How we got where we are today 
I can't figure it out 
Any more than the generation before me 
I can't figure it out 
We've got to fight not to fade away
