Wake Up Call

Landing on solid ground

The time approaching where we all fall down

With each new wave another wake up call

Deep in our minds

Where did it all go wrong?

Steadfast we hold our breath wishing it all away

Waiting for a sign to bring us back some day

We hold our breath and wish it all away

And wait for the day

To watch it all just wash right away

When will it all just make sense to me?

Is this some sort of wake up call?

Something I cant ignore?

Show me a sign of life

Just give me something more

I'm told to take a number like the others

To take a number and get back into line

Falling fast sure as the sun may rise

We're discovering all the things we hide

So much from ourselves

It's got me wondering

What's going on inside?

Have we been here before?

There's something so familiar about

this place

Can you tell me what for?

Still we keep holding our breath

So could you please lend me your ears

I've been far gone far far too long

As we masquerade, what is this game

And this constant charade?

When did your heart cease to beat anyway?

Steadfast we hold our breath
