Been sitting in silence, safe inside four walls   Trying to remember the moment when we changed the rules   Do you take to your bed or do you take the cure?   Been getting out of my head lately that's for sure      So tell me when, oh, when   Are we gonna wake the world?   When, oh, when   Are we gonna wake the world   Are we gonna wake the world?      So I took a look around to see who's still listening   Found them swaddled in lies they find so comforting   The electric eye will always tell you so   Don't want the truth around me, no, I don't want to know      So tell me when, oh, when   Are we gonna wake the world?   When, oh, when   Are we gonna wake the world   Are we gonna wake the world?      You were right when you were young   Could you ever see it all come undone   You were brave when you were young   Would you ever believe it could all come undone?      Don't want to get to a place I don't recognize   Where we've all bought the world, but left with second prize   Dragged down by the words of a hollow song   Left in a state of selfish Babylon      So tell me when, oh, when   Are we gonna wake the world?   When, oh, when   Are we gonna wake the world?      When, oh, when   Are we gonna wake the world   Are we gonna wake the world?
