Lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
|
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
|
At age 14 no inhibitions, and I sure as hell did not need your permission
|
Never looking forward, and I was never looking back, and I'd never known what's next
|
But as the days had gone by, both ignorant and blind
|
New visions of a world started ?lling my eyes!
|
Tossing and turning, with eyes open wide, that is where I ?nd!
|
I'm lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
|
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
|
Years go by as we start to see
|
So many generations torn by poverty and greed
|
So many whining that their lives are oh so bad
|
But far better than so many, it's sad!
|
Becoming intoxicated by all of the madness
|
And all of the pain that they've been through
|
Hoping and searching, a world in despair, right outside, no more!
|
I'm lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
|
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
|
There's just got to some other way, those people are dying today
|
There's just got to be some other time, that they are going to ?nd
|
There's just got to be some sort of progress, some other way they're going to know
|
There's just got to be another means to an end, here's to hoping that it will show!
|
Wake up!
|
Like some people in our society
|
And it grows, planted like a seed
|
So what do we do when it comes down on you
|
Cries ring out as a chime for awakening
|
Taking the time to listen up, maybe don't turn away
|
Maybe showing interest could show them light of day
|
(Can't you see their faces)
|
Well it's a pretty ?ne line as community paces
|
Stepping up to the edge daily different cases
|
(Oh can't you see their faces coming around, so many faces,
|
different places with so many face down)
|
Third world tragedy, another in store
|
Another taste of what's real, can they take anymore?
|
Lying awake, lost in time with no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah!
|
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows
|
Awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah!
|
Here today gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
|
I'm lying awake!
