Up until now I thought that life was easy
But now I see the shit that's happening around me
Every day it's something else
Every day it's a bit worse
And up until now I was blinded by faith
(I walk alone, I walk alone, I walk alone, you don't know)
But now the sun is down and I see the darkness
(I walk alone, I walk alone, I walk alone, you don't know)
It's crawling on the soil
(I walk alone, I walk alone)
It is deep in our souls
(I walk alone, you don't know)
I watch it going down every day again and again
I watch it going down and it breaks my heart to see us act this way
We gotta wake up now
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
We gotta do something now
'Cause tomorrow will be too late
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
And we'll just be ashamed of what we've done!
Up until now I thought that we had a chance
To change the world and make it better today
But no one's acting now
Nothing is changing no
Up until now I was afraid of rebelling
(I walk alone, I walk alone, I walk alone, you don't know)
But the world's too wrong it is so wrong I'm barely breathing
(I walk alone, I walk alone, I walk alone, you don't know)
Can't take it anymore
(I walk alone, I walk alone)
Won't take it anymore
(I walk alone, you don’t know)
I watch it going down every day again and again
I watch it going down and it breaks my heart to see us act this way
We gotta wake up now
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
We gotta do something now
'Cause tomorrow will be too late
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
And we'll just be ashamed of what we've done !
Everything's quiet now
Everyone is asleep
And I dream of a better world
Free from greed and envy
Where we just have to be
And days go by without a storm
I don't wanna wake up now
Face the reality
Please just let me sleep
I watch it going down every day again and again
I watch it going down and it breaks my heart to see us act this way
I gotta wake up now
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
I gotta do something now
'Cause tomorrow will be too late
(Wake up, wake up, wake up)
Don’t wanna be ashamed of what we've done !
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Just wake up now
