You can a look a hurricane right in the eye.
|
1200 people dead or left to die.
|
Follow the leaders, were it an eye for an eye we'd all be blind.
|
Deaf or murdered, and this I'm sure in this uncertain time.
|
|
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
|
So I can sleep tonight
|
Despite what I've seen today.
|
I found you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time
|
When you should have been wide awake.
|
|
Down on the road the world is floating by.
|
The poor and undefended left behind.
|
While you're somewhere trading lives for oil,
|
As if the whole world were blind, hey.
|
|
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
|
So I can sleep tonight
|
Despite what I've seen today.
|
I found you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
|
When you should have been wide awake.
|
|
Come pull the sheet over my eyes
|
So I can sleep tonight
|
Despite what I've seen today
|
I found you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
|
When you should have been wide awake
|
Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake!
|
