if I'm not careful, may wind up dead
that's what was told to me by the talking head
we got the video, we got the scoop
we got your number from a focus group
what's with the white noise waterfalls and calls to arms
spilling out of my t.v., tryin' to trip all my alarms?
maybe their predictions will turn out to be true
but I'm not gonna worry, I got better things to do
CHORUS
I ain't afraid of what I don't know
point me in the way that I must go
heaven above and hell below
waiting for me in the undertow
it's goin' down like the last domino
up till now, everything's been a side show
truth hurts like a body blow
if you think you're ready, just say so
how many years, time in disguise
how long till the grid pops and the infrastructure fries?
why would I waste another day in worthless worry
once we were wild here and never ever thirsty
