Wake up, wake up From your drug-induced dream Stitching cinders between the seams Unravelling through every scream Wake up From your vain, comatose state Mistaking folly for fate And taking all evil’s bait Wake up Before the darkness kidnaps you With hardly any ransom due While still corrupting fair and true Wake up Look through the humid haze Into a forgotten face’s gaze Selling more than just a blaze Wake up Let go of every word Break the silence that you’ve heard See the lines that have been blurred Wake up Can you hear me? Wake up

Rude Awakenings
Wake up, wake up From your drug-induced dream Stitching cinders between the seams Unravelling through every scream Wake up From your vain, comatose state Mistaking folly for fate And taking all evil’s bait Wake up Before the darkness kidnaps you With hardly any ransom due While still corrupting fair and true Wake up Look through the humid haze Into a forgotten face’s gaze Selling more than just a blaze Wake up Let go of every word Break the silence that you’ve heard See the lines that have been blurred Wake up Can you hear me? Wake up
