Goodbye, the future's sold out
There's no use screaming
Who thought we'd ever get this far?
Tonight, your faith has come down
To money and a TV
Psychics who've never been to Mars
And Nazis breast feeding
I know you must be upset
I can't find meaning
I'm sorry, we're sorry
We're all scared, all scared
Hey is anybody home?
Has anybody wasted tears on
The loneliness
That everyone
Goodnight, the truth has come out
Everyone's needy
White teeth, a ticket to meet God, and
Be all that you envy
The shotgun under your bed has
Started breathing
You shot it, you shot it
I'm bare, I'm bare
Hey is anybody home?
Has anybody wasted tears on
The loneliness
That everyone becomes
Is anybody low
Has anybody painted fear
On the bedroom walls that save us from...
And hey, is anybody home?
Has anybody wasted tears on
The loneliness
That everyone becomes
When they're not alright
Hey is anybody home?
Has anybody wasted tears on
The loneliness
That everyone becomes
Is anybody low
Has anybody painted fear
On the bedroom walls
That everyone becomes
Becomes, becomes, becomes, becomes, becomes
The loneliness
That everyone becomes

Song Information
Raine Maida, Woodstock.com, 19 July 1999:
Is Anybody Home is a distress signal, really. It's a call to everyone who's found themselves stuck in their rooms having their souls sucked out of them by TV and having television or the Internet mold their values and interests. It's a call for help from one isolated person to another.
