Avoiding this is like avoiding a plague
  We can't understand the advances we made
  We've tried to resist but it's so hard to say no
  We're pretending to see what the future will hold
  We appear to be in control of our fate
  Just like soldiers believe they're in control of a war
  But its moving so fast we cannot see what we've done
  we're losing our eyes just to say that we've won
  
  My mind's made up, my heart is broke
  My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked
  I can't understand how we could ever believe
  The things we asked for but never received
  
  We never understood the times we asked
  The way we wasted all that passed
  This neglect is final it's a stage we must
  Endure to ever hope to see the first
  My mind's made up about the things we did
  We never saw we believed we couldn't say what we missed
  
  My mind's made up, my heart is broke
  My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked
  I can't understand how we could ever believe
  The things we asked for but never received
  
  By making noises which we cannot control
  The things we hoped that we'd never forgo
  We appear to be in control of our fate
  Just like soldiers believe they're in control of a war
  But it's moving so fast we cannot see what we've done
  We're losing our eyes just to say that we've won
  
  My mind's made up, my heart is broke
  My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked
  I can't understand how we could ever believe
  The things we asked for but never received
