Say “how you doin’?”

But you don’t really ask

See the smile on my face

Don’t see I’m wearing a mask

So I’ll be on my way

To the tunnels underground

I plug in, I check out, and let life carry me uptown

Another restless face

Another hardened heart

We stand so close, but we’re so far apart

Blinding lights

Buildings that kiss the sky

All blur as I pass by

Racing down the track

Don’t ask, ‘cause I won’t tell

I found my rhythm, but I- I lost myself

Racing down the track

Feeling breathless

When I walk into the room

I bare my soul then it’s over

And swear I'll make it someday soon

'Til then I'm on my way

To the tunnels underground

Feel like I don’t even matter, with the rest of the cattle on their way uptown

Another chance I missed

Another day gone by

Wondering how long I can hang on for the ride

Blinding lights

Buildings that kiss the sky

All blur as I pass by

Racing down the track

Don’t ask, 'cause I won’t tell

I found my rhythm, but I- I lost myself

Racing down the track

Trapped on a carousel of fiber glass and steel

Try to convince myself my worries aren’t real

Survive my daily hell and hope tomorrow will heal the ache

Of when you start to see

It’s hard to live a dream

In the city that never sleeps

Blinding lights

Buildings that kiss the sky

All blur as I pass by

Racing down the track

Don’t ask, 'cause I won’t tell

I found my rhythm, but I- I lost myself

Racing down the track

Blinding lights

Buildings that kiss the sky

All blur as I pass by

Racing down the track

Don’t ask, 'cause I won’t tell

I found my rhythm, but I- I lost myself

Racing down the track
