I woke alone, in a mansion on a hill;
|
Across the room: a red telephone.
|
Mouth was dry, I felt I'd been asleep for years.
|
I turned and I discovered then the sum of all my fears.
|
|
What have I become?
|
(Someone tell me that I'm dreaming!)
|
What have I become?
|
(Someone wake me up!)
|
|
Through the glass, the clouds were dark and harbored rain;
|
The land below grey and vast.
|
And through the mist, I saw the fields were flush with graves,
|
And each headstone was etched with lies discrediting the brave.
|
|
Son, imitate death's true face;
|
For who and what and why'd they have to die?
|
Someone wake me up!
|
