Everyone’s talking so loud
But no one ever listens
With everything turned upside down
You can't blink or you'll miss it

What’s the story you’re yelling about?
Just a prediction of where we’re going
It’s shifting, and drifting and tumbling down
A science fiction, no happy endings

Stuck with your tunnel vision
But life ain’t so straight and narrow
But you know
What’s on the television ain’t all that you’ve got to live for
Go find more

We’re always plugging in
While we’re tuning out
Check back in once a day, or every couple hours
Guess we’ll be staying in
Cause there’s no going out

Where’s the glory in telling a story?
You feel so prodigious, just for the moment
You’re moving and shaking but you’re still so boring
The mirrors image shows no reflection

This ain’t no secret mission, it’s just a glorified tango
I can’t take no more
There ain’t no superstition
There’s just the take and the borrow
And the let go

We’re always plugging in
While we’re tuning out
Check back in once a day, or every couple hours
Guess we’ll be staying in
Cause there’s no going out

Everyone's talking so loud
But no one ever listens
With everyone's eyes on the ground
They better learn to listen
Listen up, aye

We’re always plugging in
While we’re tuning out
Check back in once a day, or every couple hours
Guess we’ll be staying in
Cause there’s no going out

We’re always plugging in
While we’re tuning out
Check back in once a day, or every couple hours
Guess we’ll be staying in
Cause there’s no going out
