Talking To Ourselves

We're waiting for something to happen

But nothing is snapping us out of this trance

And our eyelids are heavy

And soon we're all ready

To obey every single command

But I feel lost, no map in front of me

And I don't know which way is up

Wishing we could just hit pause

Just enough to breathe

(Oh why can't I shake you awake from this dream?)

I never wanted to disturb the peace

But it feels like no one's listening

Are we talking to ourselves?

Are we just talking to ourselves?

So good at speaking out of turn

And talking back I have some nerve

If I said this all to your face

Forgive me, sometimes I forget my place

So what's it gonna be?

Will you dig in or give up?

Lean in or just get lost?

Drift away from here

This demands your attention

So hear me when I say

I never wanted to disturb the peace

But it feels like no one's listening

Are we talking to ourselves?

Are we just talking to ourselves?

What are we trying to say?

And tell me what would it take

To pry open their eyes?

I would wade in the water

I'll stand in the fire

I am not afraid

And I would break down the door

If you give me the sign

For the chance to be yours

I would lay down my life

I am not afraid

I swear I never wanted to disturb the peace

But it feels like no one's listening

Are we talking to ourselves?

Yeah are we talking to ourselves?
