We're lost in music; caught in a trap. No turning back. We're lost in music. We're lost in music. Feel so alive. I quit my nine-to-five. We're lost in music. Have you ever seen some people lose everything? First to go is their mind. Responsibility to me is a tragedy. I'll get a job some other time. I want to join a band and play in front of crazy fans. Yes I call that temptation. Give me a melody. That's all that I ever need. The music is my salvation. We're lost in music; caught in a trap In the spotlight The band plays so very tight Each and every night. It's not vanity. To me It's my sanity. I could never survive. Some people ask of me: What are you gonna be? Why don't you go get a job? All that I can say: I won't give up my music Not me Not now No way No how. We're lost in music Caught in a trap Caught in our muslc. No turning back. We're lost in music. We're lost in music - don't take away our music Feel so alive Feel. I quit I quit my nine-to-five. Yeah We're lost in music. We're lost in music melody is good to me. Caught in a trap I'm caught. Oh baby No turning back. No No No We're lost in music. We're lost in music.
