Audioslave - Wide Awake

Wide Awake

Audioslave

You can look a hurricane right in the eye

Twelve hundred people dead or left to die

Follow the leaders

Were it an eye for an eye, we'd all be blind

Deaf or murdered, this I'm sure

In this uncertain time

So come put a sheet over my eyes

So I can sleep tonight

Despite what I've seen today

I found you guilty of a crime

Of sleeping at a time

When you should have been wide awake

Down on the road the world is floating by

The poor and undefended left behind

While you're somewhere trading lives for oil

As if the whole world were blind

So come put a sheet over my eyes

So I can sleep tonight

Despite what I've seen today

I found you guilty of a crime

Of sleeping at a time

When you should have been wide awake

Wide Awake!

Wide Awake!

Wide Awake!

Wide Awake!

Awake!
