Wide Awake lyrics

[Verse 1]
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, of this I'm sure in these uncertain times

[Chorus]
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today
I found you guilty of the crime, of sleeping in a time
When you should have been wide awake

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today
I've found you guilty of the crime, of sleeping in a time
When you should have been wide awake
[Bridge]
I found you guilty of the crime
Not much I know

[Chorus]
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today
I've found you guilty of the crime, of sleeping in a time
When you should have been wide awake

[Outro]
Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake!
Yeah, yeah, yeah
