Lyrics

   Hard to tell if I'm awake anymore
   Hard to know for sure
   In this dream, used to think I believe
   Hard to know for sure
   
   I know what I am, I know who I am
   And I know what I have to do
   I know what I am, I know who I am
   But what if everything is true?
   
   I got a shadow over me
   I am not what I appear to be
   And I know that you believe in me
   And it feels so real, and it feels so re—
   
   Yes, everything is fine, fine, fine, fine
   We're running out of time, time, time, time
   Yes, everything is fine, fine, fine, fine
   We're running out of time, time, time, time
   
   Here I stand, indiscrete, obsolete
   Now I know for sure
   Poisoned thoughts infiltrate, eradicate
   Now I know for sure
   
   I know what I am, I know who I am
   And I know what I have to do
   I know what I am, I know who I am
   But what if everything is true?
   
   I got a shadow over me
   I am not what I appear to be
   And I know that you believe in me
   And it feels so real, and it feels so real
   I got a shadow over me
   I am not what I appear to be
   And I know that you believe in me
   And it feels so real, and it feels so re—
   
   Yes, everything is fine, fine, fine, fine
   We're running out of time, time, time, time
   Make sure you stay in line, line, line, line
   We're running out of time, time, time, time
   Make sure you stay in line, line, line, line
   We're running out of time, time, time, time
