Genuine

Did you see the headlines
Little things are blown to size
It's all around the world before you know
We're living in a time
With all the borders tripped and mined
Days are gone when you could just be
Ordinary
Another patient
On vacation
Gone for days without your medication
In the end
One decision that you make
There is a way to face it
Lose your head
Find a way to get it on
Cuz' overnight
Everything can be
So undone
Did you see the headlights
Little pair of glowing eyes
Staring at you down the lonely road
Did you dream you saw your life
Drawn across a sharpened knife
Made to watch as all the blood runs cold
Are you strong enough
Seize the moment now
There's so little time before it's gone
Redemption is at hand
No matter what chemical you've taken on
If you could use another plan
It's got to be the genuine
Come
If you want to come
Want you to live
Like you want to live anyway
Want you to stay
If you want to stay
One decision
One decision
The genuine
