Stay Awake Songtext
Eyes are burning bright
By fires that you have helped ignite
And you came just so you could start a fight
Don′t give a fuck about your revolution, right?
Do you think it's justified to spread a lie
By shoving my face into the pavement?
And just ′cause you think you're right, don't make you right
You bury yourself with every statement
And I know, and I know that you feel the urge
To control everything that you can′t discern
′Cause it's different from you and from what you′ve learned
And that's scary for someone who′s blind
'Cause their back has been turned
Stay awake
We′ve had enough of the future they sell
If we wanted to be restrained
We would tie the knot ourselves
Offended by the sight
Of strangers who just want to survive
You spit on their culture out of spite
Then scream that they violate your rights
And I know, and I know that you feel the urge
To control everything that you can't discern
'Cause it′s different from you and from what you′ve learned
And that's scary for someone who′s blind
'Cause their back has been turned
And I know that you feel the urge
To control everything that you can′t discern
'Cause it′s different from you and from what you've learned
And that's scary for someone who′s blind
′Cause their back has been turned
Stay awake
We've had enough of the future they sell
If we wanted to be restrained
We would tie the knot ourselves
We′ve had enough of the future they sell
If we wanted to be restrained
We would tie the knot ourselves
If all hope is lost
Then why are you fighting for
Your place in this great hopeless cause
The irony is not lost on me
Stay awake
We've had enough of the future they sell
If we wanted to be restrained
We would tie the knot ourselves
By fires that you have helped ignite
And you came just so you could start a fight
Don′t give a fuck about your revolution, right?
Do you think it's justified to spread a lie
By shoving my face into the pavement?
And just ′cause you think you're right, don't make you right
You bury yourself with every statement
And I know, and I know that you feel the urge
To control everything that you can′t discern
′Cause it's different from you and from what you′ve learned
And that's scary for someone who′s blind
'Cause their back has been turned
Stay awake
We′ve had enough of the future they sell
If we wanted to be restrained
We would tie the knot ourselves
Offended by the sight
Of strangers who just want to survive
You spit on their culture out of spite
Then scream that they violate your rights
And I know, and I know that you feel the urge
To control everything that you can't discern
'Cause it′s different from you and from what you′ve learned
And that's scary for someone who′s blind
'Cause their back has been turned
And I know that you feel the urge
To control everything that you can′t discern
'Cause it′s different from you and from what you've learned
And that's scary for someone who′s blind
′Cause their back has been turned
Stay awake
We've had enough of the future they sell
If we wanted to be restrained
We would tie the knot ourselves
We′ve had enough of the future they sell
If we wanted to be restrained
We would tie the knot ourselves
If all hope is lost
Then why are you fighting for
Your place in this great hopeless cause
The irony is not lost on me
Stay awake
We've had enough of the future they sell
If we wanted to be restrained
We would tie the knot ourselves
