You make promise of protection   To a future after life   To the final resurrection   And to eternal paradise      But then I'm blinded with temptation   And to every mortal sin   Is it God that sits there waiting   Or will the darkness suck me in?      Let's wake up the dead, oh yeah   It's better than never you know   More tears are shed, oh yeah   I'm praying that you'll never know   That I'm facing hell      Oh the children sit and listen   The belief was in their eyes   In a land without tomorrows   Through the night you hear their cries      But then your eyes just skip the pages   Of a book that never ends   Is it God that sits there waiting?   Do you hear the call again?      Let's wake up the dead, oh yeah   It's better than never you know   More tears are shed, oh yeah   I'm praying that you'll never know   That I'm facing hell      It's just crazy world we live in and I'm out of my mind   You pray tomorrow but your leaving today   Evil one is coming and he's knocking your door   'Cause today's the day you'll pay      Let's wake up the dead, oh yeah   It's better than never you know   More tears are shed, oh yeah   I'm praying that you'll never know      Let's wake up the dead, oh yeah   It's better than never you know   More tears are shed, oh yeah   I'm praying that you'll never know      That I'm facing hell   That I'm facing hell   That I'm facing hell   That I'm facing hell
