Wake Yourself To Life Lyrics

When you know the world is changing

But you don't know if the dark outweighs the light

And the news just makes you heavy

There's a hole in every levee and nobody's right

Meanwhile unemployment lines

Just go on for miles

Can't believe it

The wealthy get the care they need

While the poor are left to beg and bleed

While we've been asleep

Holding on to dreams

Life has slipped away

Now it's time to say

In the darkest hour

Wake yourself to life

To life

To life

When you feel like you can't take it

But you know you've got to make it through the day

There's a burden on your shoulders

And it's trying to take you over in every way

While sirens fill the air

You begin to care

For the other

Do we have to knock upon death's door

To remember what we're living for

While we've been asleep

Holding on to dreams

Life has slipped away

Now it's time to say

Wasting so much time

Drawing party lines

In our darkest hour

Go on and wake yourself to life

To life

To life

To life

Oh life

To life

To life

Go on and wake yourself to life
