When you are anonymous and strange
You don't know how to act to socialize
You are ill at ease and out of place
But somehow attracted by the other side
You wish you were somebody else
To drown yourself among the faceless sheeps
In a jungle of monkey brains
Because we are all brothers under the skin
I know I don't belong in the computerized land
There is no way I can like in a world like this
Will they awake before they die?
Everyone looks so asleep in the alien nation
You try so hard to play the game
And pretend you are like anybody else
But while fitting in you are afraid
That they find out what is hidden in the shell
You can't face them with your own eyes
But you are not alone to wear a mask
Everyone is wearing a disguise
We all have a knife hidden behind our back
I know I don't belong in the computerized land
There is no way I can like in a world like this
Will they awake before they die?
Everyone looks so asleep in the alien nation
Sinking in a walkabout
In a sea of noise and silent shouts
Going on with the flow
My rocket ship is sinking low
I can't stand this masquerade
It feels like outer space
