When peace is merely illusion
the rich want you to believe
wake up, open the curtains
it's nightmare, never a dream

you sit there as they draw your blood
out of the wound you've got
from living and trying to survive
from walking on this bridge we call life


Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
WAKE UP!

when the sky lights up so bright
and not from fireworks or the stars
and you can only sit there as they cry
you realized that peace is still way too far

Don't you know now thieves are wearing suit and tie?
Rotten tongue behind all those pearly whites
Under the rubbles you'll find angels die
How can we keep walking on this bridge we call life


Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
WAKE UP!

Witness all those olive trees uprooted and burnt down

Their branches crumbles into ashes

All the doves and pigeons are nowhere to be found

Don't you know now murderers are wearing suit and tie?

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
WAKE UP!
