stuck in the prosthetic new wave did i strike a single nerve is your heart still beating choke another second watch your mouth they re watching waiting for you but you can t talk about it step back a second to fixate upon a twisted observation that brought you to your knees another fallacy another waking moment of truth you re not quite dead no not quite yet this is your time just how far will you take it as we carry along daft and choking on words poking head in harms way maybe some day i ll learn as we carry along these broken records and promises that get in the way have me hoping someday i ll get it right distracting lies that cry restraint hang tight another sec is your heart still beating focused on retraction idle hands are washed up waiting for you no second thought about it remembering all that you taught me provoked a numbing realization that brought me to my feet the only one who ll make you sorry is the one that s stuck in your shoes and it s you no you re not quite dead no not quite yet this is our time just how far will you take it
