I wake up in the middle of the night

I shiver in a state of fright

And the dream in my head doesn't fade

It gets clearer instead

In my dream people are slaves

False prophets on the airwaves

And every channel, every station

Preaches to have separation

I'm dreaming

Oh, I'm dreaming

Oh, I wake up in the middle of the night

I found my dream in the coat of light

A brave new world in my head

Lewd bad monkeys and the living dead

I see power for power

Money for money

And fame for fame sake

A new religion for the human race

But if all the walls go down tonight

What if all the walls go down tonight?

Tonight, tonight

And if all the walls go down tonight

It'd be okay, I would be alright

Oh, I wake up in the middle of the night

My senses screaming, some thing's not right

There's a shadow on the wall

Doesn't look like my shadow at all

I wake up in the middle of the night

My senses screaming, some thing's not right

There's a shadow in my bed

I'm not alive but I'm not dead

Every empire falls into the sea

It fades away from memory

Eventually, oh, eventually

Everything just fades away

Oh, eventually
