Before I Start Noticing Lyrics

Was I brought here? Was I born here?

Already trapped in the corner

Well, at least I've got company

Always logged on with my eyes pried

Letting life fall by the wayside

For the drivel in front of me

And that consoling screen

It's got its hooks in me

Now nothing's free, not even my time

But it's so hard to tell

When in an open cell

This private hell is so benign

No more of the caged birds sing

Can't see the bars, or feel the clipped wings

Hook me up to that machine

Before I start noticing

Gate was open, but we stayed still

Been sedated by the blue pill

Now we can't see our way out of this hole

Think I've fallen ill, I'm gonna walk home

Got a bad case of the Stockholm

Disturbed yet down with the syndrome

And that seductive screen

Has got me salivating

And damn it's such a tempting dose

I might have a key

But I can't seem to leave

Everyone's an agoraphobe

No more of the caged birds sing

Cant see the bars, or feel the clipped wings

Hook me up to that machine

Cuz the illusion's so convincing

No more of the caged birds sing

No they haven't got an inkling

Hook me up to that machine

Before I start noticing
