when you look out at night you are surrounded by people    cracked in the heat again dead on their feet again people    rings all around their eyes flashing their whitest lies    taking their medicine 'til they're all out of time people people       what does it say to you when you can't face all those people    you could run out of friends faster than making them    out on your own again now you don't know how to feel feel       when you're looking for reason and finding confusion    you're caught in the crossfire learning to thrill    well there's gotta be some way out of the groove    now you're caught in a spinning your laughter    feeling your backbone turn into glue    and i wanna be something people       when you look out at night are you surrounded by people    cracked in the heat again dead on their feet again    taking their medicine 'til they're all out of time people people       when you're looking for reason and finding confusion    you're caught in the crossfire learning to thrill    well there's gotta be some way out of the groove    now you're caught in a spinning your laughter    feeling your backbone turn into glue    and i wanna be something people       people people people
