Wide Awake Songtext
von Audioslave

You can look a hurricane right in the eye
12 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 undefended left behind
While you're somewhere, trading lives for oil
As if the whole world were blind, hey

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
Wide awake
