Verse 1:
I remember a story
A story of a little boy
The story of a mother's child
The story of all
I remember the middle of the darkness
Reaching out for a hand to hold
Reaching out for anything
That'll lead me back home
Chorus:
I'm still here
I'm still waiting for You
After all these years
After all these years
Verse 2:
I remember the shadows
On the walls of my memory
They move around like reality
In this prison that we've made
And I remember the first born sunrise
Couldn't stand to open my eyes
Like a blind man wandering
On the edge of his grave
Chorus:
I'm still here
I'm still waiting for You
After all these years
After all these years
Verse 3:
Campfires and masquerades
Come and go like cheap parades
When nothing's lost and nothing's changed
We like it that way
Our politicians have to lie
Because if they opened up our eyes
We'd kill them just like the others who tried
To pull us out of this cave
Bridge:
Maybe that's why we're so shaken
When our questions have the courage to
Come and drag us from our fiction
Those who fear the grave
Never find the truth
But everyday begins at midnight
And if we're ever gonna see the sunrise
Somebody's gotta wake up
Before the morning comes
Outro:
Somebody's gotta wake up
Gotta wake up
Somebody's gotta wake up
Before the morning comes
Somebody's gotta wake up
Gotta wake up
Somebody's gotta wake up
Before the morning comes
Gotta wake up
Gotta wake up, wake up
Before the morning comes
