He sees his life just pass by Just another number in a suit and tie No purpose here nothing to give Is this what it means to really live? His feet never touch the ground His days fly by, he can't slow down (CHORUS) Casualties of the American dream Have we lost our vision Drifting off and living Half asleep with a faint heartbeat Just dying to be revived I want to be revived She's screaming out,"I've lost control" Caught in another undertow She's only barely hanging on Been holding her breath for so long Her feet never touch the ground She's not sure which way is up or down (CHORUS) Casualties of the American dream Have we lost our vision Drifting off and living Half asleep with a faint heartbeat Just dying to be revived I want to be revived I want to feel alive And in a world so numb Don't let me become another Casualty living in a dream (CHORUS) Casualties of the American dream Have we lost our vision Drifting off and living Half asleep with a faint heartbeat Just dying to be revived I want to be revived I want to be revived
