All this time asleep
Living in your dream
To hell with who gets left behind
Slings and arrows pointed
All in vain and pointless

We gotta rise with our hearts and our minds
Impossible to obey
Nothings been given away
Dystopian disarray
We gotta rise up
We gotta rise to the stars in our eyes
We gotta rise up
We gotta rise with our hearts and our minds
We gotta rise up
We gotta rise up
We gotta rise up
We gotta rise up
