LYRICS:

I want to wake up from this horrible dream.

I want to open up my eyes to find life's not as it would seem.

I want to wake up from this horrible dream.

I want to open up my eyes to find life's not as it would seem.

The cabinet floats in the murky water,

Bobbing in the slime that trickles out of the cerebellum

And right on down your spine.

Well I don't know what you've been told

But there's more than one truth: This I know.

I don't know just what you fear

But take a look in here.

And when the walls of Earth rise up around you

Rise to another plane.

And wake up from this horrible dream.

I want to open up my eyes to find life's not as it would seem.

I want to wake up from this horrible dream.

I want to open up my eyes to find life's not as it would seem.

The eternal question of reality;

It still stands today.

Is life a dream that we believe

Only to fade away?

Is death a door or is it the end?

Did I take my life only to find myself in another bed

Dreaming another life?

And when the walls of Earth rise up around you

Rise to another plane.

And when the arms of Earth reach up to grab you

Rise to another plane!

And wake up from this horrible dream.

I want to open up my eyes to find life's not as it would seem.

I want to wake up from this horrible dream.

I want to open up my eyes to find life's not as it would seem.

I never felt like I belonged here

With these creatures to depraved.

Now if only I could find a way out of this place

I could finally plan my escape

And wake up!

I want to wake up from this horrible dream.

I want to open up my eyes to find life's not as it would seem

I want to wake up from this horrible dream.

Open up my eyes to find life's not as it would seem

And wake up!

Tear the veil that covers up our lives.

What you want is right before your eyes!

Yeah! Just wake up!

Wake-up...

Wake-up...

Wake-up...

Wake-up...

Wake-up...

Next time I'm on itunes, I'm totally buying this album. I can never decide which of your songs is my favorite...each one is unique, but Raised by Bats has the songs I keep listening to the most. I hope more people find your music.Totally awesome.

May I have your permission in advance to use "Wake Up" as the themesong for my Television Show: Xenophobia (that is to say, if the show ever gets made)? It's just that the lyrics of the song perfectly describes the major themes of the series: e I- the real world is a nightmare for strange people, and the need to escape this false reality created by a malevolent and cruel God

my only problem with this song is every time I listen to it, my phone turns on. It can't resist when you say "Wake Up"

This feels to me like... Voltaire mixed with the B-52s. I like it. Different.

Voltaire-.. idk why- but this sounds like Billy Idol. What did you listen to in the 80's. I love all your albums. I was worried about the new one, because of delays- But! I think it might be my new favorite- you continue to out-do yourself everytime- i dont know how u do it. but thank you.. 3:)

Personally I don't think life is horrible. The world is getting better. It looks like it's headed towards perfection.

Pretty good one. This and Captain's All have probably been some of the most enjoyable tracks from this album so far...(given that I've only given each track one listen to so far).
