Why do we sit here lonely,
Playing the waiting game,
I'm not the one and only,
Endlessly changing lanes,
So many drawn out faces,
Eyes pleading for answers,
Lost in so many places,
Blaming lost chances
No matter what TV says,
It's just a waking dream,
We just accept it this way,
Until the shotgun scream,
Now get up,
You better get up,
Don't stay where the dead ones lay,
Living but not awake,
Wake up for goodness sake,
So what you gonna do now,
Every day feels the same?
Ask Gods the 'whys' and 'hows'
Alleviate the pain,
Your smile don't fool no one,
Dogma does not fulfil,
Logic deems it come undone,
So you're back to the pills,
Living dead
Now get up,
You better get up,
Don't stay where the dead ones lay,
Living but not awake,
Wake up for goodness sake,
This 9 to 5 shit stinks,
But you can't break the cycle to think,
This world's got so much to see,
But you're stuck in a rut, trying to breathe,
(Wake up)
Don't stay there, don't stay,
Don't stay where the dead ones lay,
(Nothing's quite what it seems, got lost in a dream)
"Some think they can run, but,
Time waits for no one,"
Don't dwell on (pictures from) the past,
Things, they fade and never last,
(Nostalgia is such a dangerous game),
You're living a dream,
Time to wake up, sleepy head,
Every day is the same,
Slowly rotting, waiting to be amongst the dead,
We're not eternal, we are not forever,
Don't let life pass you by, it might be gone too soon,
Don't waste away, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you,
Oh sweet baby, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.
