Woke Up a Rebel Songtext
von Reuben and the Dark

The blood will not dry
And time will not heal
I want to be free
But the blood will not dry

And the sun disappeared
Through the hole in the sky
Oh, they made me a shadow
And blackened my bones
But I will rise

I died like a saint
Was reborn a devil
I slept like a slave
And woke up a rebel
I died like a saint
Was reborn a devil
I slept like a slave
And woke up a rebel


Oh-oh-oh
Woke up a rebel, woke up a rebel
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Woke up a rebel, a rebel

I am wild, I am lost
I am sick, I am damned
But I am holding redemption in the palm of my hand
So I tighten my fist
And sharpen my teeth
It′s a promise I made
It's secret I keep

I am lookin′ for trouble
And trouble I will find
You will get what is comin'
I'll take back what is mine
I′ll set fire to this dream
I′ll set fire to this dream
And I will rise


I died like a saint
Was reborn a devil
I slept like a slave
And woke up a rebel
I died like a saint
Was reborn a devil
I slept like a slave
And woke up a rebel

Oh-oh-oh
Woke up a rebel, woke up a rebel
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Woke up a rebel, a rebel
Oh-oh-oh
Woke up a rebel, woke up a rebel
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Woke up a rebel
