Are You Sleeping?
Are You Sleeping? (4:59)
There’s something on the wind today
I can feel it in my bones
It’s lurking down each avenue
And in each heart and home
You’ll find it in the media
The headlines are aflame
Everybody’s pointing fingers
Wonderin’ where to cast the blame.
The world has lost its mind it seems
Terror stalks the streets
There’s lead in drinking water
Melting ice and rising seas
It wasn’t all that many years ago
That we believed in love
It’s all you need to change the world
But what have you done?
Are you sleeping?
Trouble’s creeping.
Danger’s at the door.
Stop your dreaming.
Trouble’s screaming.
It’s coming back for more.
Population overdrive
Farms with GMOs
Our health declines while billions flow
Through corporate CEOs
College costs keep climbing for
Our daughters and our sons
While it’s too damn easy for
A lunatic to buy a gun
Are you sleeping?
Trouble’s creeping.
Danger’s at the door.
Stop your dreaming.
Trouble’s screaming.
It’s coming back for more.
I remember honor, and
It might sound absurd
I remember when men’s promises
Were as strong their word
Something’s got to turn around
Something’s got to give
Our society is bleeding
And it’s leaking like a sieve.
There’s something on the wind today
I can feel it in my bones
It’s lurking down each avenue
And in each heart and home
It wasn’t all that many years ago
That we believed in love
It’s all you need to change the world
But what have you done?
Are you sleeping?
Trouble’s creeping.
Danger’s at the door.
Stop your dreaming.
Trouble’s screaming.
It’s coming back for more.
Are you sleeping?
Trouble’s creeping.
Danger’s at the door.
Stop your dreaming.
Trouble’s screaming.
It’s coming back for more.
It’s coming back for more.
