Lyrics

Living in an echo of a long forgotten song
Sitting in the shadow of a dream
And every friend I thought I had, has turned their back and run
And everything I held so dear is gone
We seem to live a double life
You build a home, designer wife
A peaceful paradise behind a veil
And in return you sell your soul, learn to lie and force a smile
And read the script just like you've been told
When will you wake up, pretty sleepwalker, mmm
When will you stand up, we're in deep water, don't you know
So how can you go home and carry on
After all you've learned and you've been shown
And those who dare to venture down the road less travelled on
Stand alone in battle every day
Like a fire in a snow storm, a needle in the hay
Always out of place and far from home
But there's no peace in knowing more
And watching as the Picadore
Whips the frenzied crowd to howl and wail
And madness whispered here and there
Is now a roar and everywhere
And thinking for yourself could end in jail
When will you wake up, pretty sleepwalker, mmm
When will you stand up, we're in deep water, don't you know
So how can you go home and carry on
After all you've learned and you've been shown
And madness once a sight so rare
Is now a roar and everywhere
And thinking for yourself could end in jail
When will you wake up, pretty sleepwalker, mmm
When will you stand up, we're in deep water, don't you know
And how can you, just go home and carry on
After all you have learned and you've been shown
Alright, alright
