Stay Awake

Eyes are burning bright

By fires that you have helped ignite

And you came just so you could start a fight

Don't give a fuck about your revolution, right?

Do you think it's justified to spread a lie

By shoving my face into the pavement?

And just 'cause you think you're right, don't make you right

You bury yourself with every statement

And I know, and I know that you feel the urge

To control everything that you can't discern

'Cause it's different from you and from what you've learned

And that's scary for someone who's blind 'cause their back has been turned

Stay awake

We've had enough of the future they sell

If we wanted to be restrained

We would tie the knot ourselves

Offended by the sight

Of strangers who just want to survive

You spit on their culture out of spite

Then scream that they violate your rights

And I know, and I know that you feel the urge

To control everything that you can't discern

'Cause it's different from you and from what you've learned

And that's scary for someone who's blind 'cause their back has been turned

And I know that you feel the urge

To control everything that you can't discern

'Cause it's different from you and from what you've learned

And that's scary for someone who's blind 'cause their back has been turned

Stay awake

We've had enough of the future they sell

If we wanted to be restrained

We would tie the knot ourselves

(We've had enough of the future they sell

If we wanted to be restrained

We would tie the knot ourselves)

If all hope is lost

Then why are you fighting for

Your place in this great hopeless cause?

The irony is not lost on me

Stay awake

We've had enough of the future they sell

If we wanted to be restrained

We would tie the knot ourselves
