Lyrics
Thank you very much
This next song Is on Revelations
This is called Wide awake
It's dedicated to all the victims of the
Aftermath of Hurricane Katrina
The living ones and the dead ones
You can look a hurricane right, in the eye
Twelve hundred people that are, left to die
Follow the leaders, were it an eye
For an eye we'd all blind
Death or murdered, of this I'm sure
In this uncertain times
So come pull a sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite, what I've seen today
I find you guilty of a crime
Of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake
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
So come pull a sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite, what I've seen today
I find you guilty of the crime
Of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake
I find you guilty of the crime
All this I know
So come pull a sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite, what I've seen today
'Cause I found you guilty of the crime
Of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake
Wide awake
Wide awake
Wide awake
Wide awake
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Thank you
Thanks very much
Now I guess-
You know whatever
Should I play more?
