Lyrics
Wake up
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They crawl from the mouths and then fall to the ground out of sight
They burgle the heart of the child and fall them to sleep
By feeding them lies like a pill promising it's alright
But never so broke is this newly sick joke
Delusions are spoiling the air that we breathe
And now it's time
to draw the line
between the things
we hold up to this light
we've taken as gift
and the things deep inside
we once knew in
AWE.
So keep their pill tucked under your tongue 'till they leave
Sizz it out quickly and rub the spit on your sleeve
Feeling your way out of bed in the dark, there's no light
Crawl out of bed even in your nightclothes
And Meet us outside where the sky greets the road
Cos now it's time
to draw the line
between the things
we hold up to this light
we've taken as gift
and the things deep inside
we once knew in
AWE.
Wake up, wake up,
Don't swallow the pill
Wake up, wake up,
Your fear will kill
The thieves are crawling through the night
They're here to twist your thoughts and sight
Wake up!
Wake up!
They're by your bed
They're flipping their lies up into the air
While they tilt your head
They told me my dreams were common disease
To prey to their god get down on my knees
The dollar in heaven says slavery is free
Wake up!
I felt lies pouring down my throat
then splash in my stomach which sent out a jolt
I now have a number in place of my name
A guaranteed role in their new world game
They show me friends
And who I should hate
Tossing out freedoms to keep us all safe
WAIT WAIT WAIT!
And for $19.95 you can get 20% more freedumb brand
Wake up wake up Don't swallow the pill
Wake up wake up Your fear will kill
The thieves are crawling through the night
They're here to twist your thoughts and sight
Wake up!
Wake up!
They're in your head
Unless we open our eyes tonight We'll end up dead
What's so safe about war at large?
And how bout the way they put them in charge?
The large in charge will run the earth dry
Denying the choices of you and I
Wake up!
