lyrics

Awaken from your sleeping
Open your eyes, and face the day
Awaken from your dreaming
Put dreams away, you'll have no use for them today

Scared and helpless
Restless and hopeless
You seem to know nothing, and yet you seem to know far too much
Bitter and burned-out
With everything and how it all turned out
Somehow knowing nothing and yet knowing far too much

The lights have all gone out
The building is coming down
Trapped underneath the burning steel
The lights have been extinguished
There are no rights left to relinquish
Trapped underneath the burning steel for all time

The lights have all gone out
The buildings have fallen down
Still trapped beneath the burning steel
The lights have all gone out
And everything is different now
Trapped underneath the broken pieces
