Wake Up Call

We're all pretending to be innocent But is this what we are? Is it inevitable to let go of the things That we've created to live in a better place? All we do is take take take And chose to neglect our descendants All we do is take take take And consciously create our dependence Why is there so much hate? Kind of an unfair world This can't be fate You won't be heard Losing sight of what is real Tell me can't you feel We're standing on a burning ground Burning ground More and more I'm losing sight of what is real I'm looking for a reason What should I feel? More and more I'm losing sight of what is surrounding me We're all human with bone, soul, and heart However, some of us are falling apart Competing instead of getting stronger I will not hold it any longer Why is there so much hate? Kind of an unfair world This can't be fate You won't be heard Can't see what's ahead of me Tell me how to deal, Still standing on this burning ground Don't be another brick in the wall This is a wakeup call!! All we do is take take take And chose to neglect our descendants All we do is take take take And consciously create our dependence All we do is take take take And chose to neglect our descendants All we do is take take take And consciously create our dependence Losing sight of what is real Tell me can't you feel We're standing on a burning ground
