Wide Awake lyrics
by 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,

They'd all be blind, deaf, or murdered, of this I'm sure

In this uncertain time



So come pull the sheet over my eyes

So I can sleep tonight

Despite what I've seen today

I've 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 undefined left behind

While somewhere you're trading lives, for oil,

As if the whole world were blind



So come pull the sheet over my eyes

So I can sleep tonight

Despite what I've seen today

I've found you guilty of a crime

Of sleeping at a time

When you should have been wide awake



So come pull the sheet over my eyes

So I can sleep tonight

Despite what I've seen today

I've found you guilty of a crime

Of sleeping at a time

When you should have been wide awake

Wide awake

Wide awake

Wide awake
