slipstream

Are you drifting, is there nowhere to go
Life support is down and your systems low
Are you cruising on your secondary cells
Waiting for the bell
(Oh do you really think so)
Flatline your illusory mind
Dreams are for the bold and you're not that kind
Disappointment has a house on that road
Best to stay at home
(Oh do you really think so)
You're safe and warm inside
Your chances pass you by
The question fills your mind
Are you caught in the slipstream
Are you lost in the fog
Can you see through the windscreen
Are you sure it's safe to follow somebody's tail light
Are you already lost
When you get to the daylight
Will you recognise the world you walked across
Are you listening with your head in the sand
Drown the words you don't want to understand
Til the sound stops, is it safe to come out
Nobody's about
(Oh do you really think so)
Too late now there's nowhere to go
Life support is down and your systems low
And your fuel light says you'll never get home
Now you're all alone
(Oh do you really think so)
You're scared to stay inside
Your chances pass you by
The question fills your mind
Are you caught in the slipstream
Are you lost in the fog
Can you see through the windscreen
Are you sure it's safe to follow somebody's tail light
Are you already lost
When you get to the daylight
Will you recognise the world you walked across
You' re safe and warm inside
Your chances pass you by
The question fills your mind
Are you caught in the slipstream
Are you lost in the fog
Can you see through the windscreen
Are you sure it's safe to follow somebody's tail light
Are you already lost
When you get to the daylight
Will you recognise the world ...
Penny for the dreams you thought you'd lost
Penny for the peace you thought you'd see
Penny for the price you thought it cost
Penny for the one you thought you 'd be
Pity for the times you kept it all
Pity for the wealth you thought you'd get
Pity for the day your empire falls
Pity for the day your life got caught
Are you caught in the slipstream
Are you lost in the fog
Can you see through the windscreen
Are you sure it's safe to follow somebody's tail light
Are you already lost
When you get to the daylight
Will you recognise the world you walked across
