Authority Zero - Lying Awake (album version)

Lying awake, lost in time

With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah

Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows

At age 14, no inhibitions

And I sure as hell did not need your permission

Never looking forward, and I was never looking back

And I'd never known what's next

But as the days had gone by

Both ignorant and blind

New visions of a world started filling my eyes

Tossing and turning with eyes open wide

That is where I find

I'm lying awake, lost in time

With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah

Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows

Years go by as we start to see

So many generations torn by poverty and greed

So many whining that their lives are oh so bad

But far better than so many, it's sad

Becoming intoxicated by all of the madness

And all of the pain that they've been through

Hoping and searching, a world in despair

Right outside, no more

Lying awake, lost in time

With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah

Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows

There's just got to some other way

The people are dying today

There's just got to be some other time

That they are going to find

There's just got to be some sort of progress

Some other way they're going to know

There's just got to be another means to an end

Here's to hoping that it will show

Wake up

Like some people in our society

And it grows, planted like a seed

So what do we do when it comes down on you

Cries ring out as a chime for awakening

Taking time as you go, maybe don't turn away

Maybe showing interest could show them light of day

Light of day

Well, it's a pretty fine line as community paces

(Whoa, can't you see their faces?)

Stepping up to the edge daily different cases

(Whoa, can't you see their faces?)

Well, it's a pretty fine line as community paces

(Whoa, can't you see their faces?)

Stepping up to the edge daily different cases

(Whoa, can't you see their faces?)

Third world tragedy, another in store

(Oh, can't you see their faces coming around?)

Another taste of what's real, can they take anymore?

(So many faces different places with so many face down)

Another third world tragedy, another in store

(Oh, can't you see their faces coming around?)

Another taste of what's real, can they take anymore?

(So many faces different places with so many face down)

Lying awake, lost in time

With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah

Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows

Lying awake, lost in time

With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah

Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows

I'm lying awake
