Wake Up

I wake up
In the middle of the night
I shiver in a state of fright
And the dream in my head
Doesn’t fade it
Gets clearer instead
In my dream people are slaves
False prophets on the airwaves
And every channel, every station
Preaches to our separation
I’m
Dreaming
I’m dreaming
Oh, I wake up
In the middle of the night
I found my dream in the coat of light
I brave new world in my head
Ruled by monkeys and the living dead
I see power for power
Money for money
Fame for fame’s sake
A new religion for the human race
But if all the walls go down tonight
What if all the walls go down tonight?
(Tonight, tonight)
And if all the walls go down tonight
It’d be okay
I would be alright
Oh, I wake up, in the middle of the night
My senses screaming, something’s not right
There’s a shadow on the wall
Doesn’t look like my shadow at all
I wake up, in the middle of the night
My senses screaming, something’s not right
There’s a shadow in my bed
I’m not alive, but I’m not dead
Every empire falls, into the sea
They fade away, from memory
Eventually
Oh, eventually
Everything will just fade away
Oh, eventually
