Sing in Our Sleep
How many times must a son still deliver?
The space in his father's shoes he must fill
How many times must a mother still deny it?
Still living through her mother's own eyes
How many times must a father still try to fight it?
Loss of a father he never knew
After eating dinner silently at the table
They all go back into their rooms
So they'll sing, sing, sing in their sleep
They'll sing, sing, sing in their sleep
They'll sing, sing, sing in their sleep
They'll sing, sing, sing in their sleep
How many times must a soldier still pull the trigger?
From a rifle, he is told is his best friend
How many times must a general still give an order?
Nothing is ever black or white
How many times must the government still try to hide it?
Information that could still save lives
After eating dinner the president thinks at the table
Is this the job I had in mind?
So he'll sing, sing, sing in his sleep
He'll sing, sing, sing in his sleep
He'll sing, sing, sing in his sleep
He'll sing, sing, sing in his sleep
How many lives will be spoiled out in the open?
Due to someone's own faith
How many lives will be sparred in one moment?
Different religions, but still the same
How many flags will be raised and be shown?
To prove that the world can really change
After every war has been fought and then it's over
Who will be left to blame?
So we'll sing, sing, sing in our sleep
We'll sing, sing, sing in our sleep
We'll sing, sing, sing in our sleep
We'll sing, sing, sing in our sleep
The space in his father's shoes he must fill
How many times must a mother still deny it?
Still living through her mother's own eyes
How many times must a father still try to fight it?
Loss of a father he never knew
After eating dinner silently at the table
They all go back into their rooms
So they'll sing, sing, sing in their sleep
They'll sing, sing, sing in their sleep
They'll sing, sing, sing in their sleep
They'll sing, sing, sing in their sleep
How many times must a soldier still pull the trigger?
From a rifle, he is told is his best friend
How many times must a general still give an order?
Nothing is ever black or white
How many times must the government still try to hide it?
Information that could still save lives
After eating dinner the president thinks at the table
Is this the job I had in mind?
So he'll sing, sing, sing in his sleep
He'll sing, sing, sing in his sleep
He'll sing, sing, sing in his sleep
He'll sing, sing, sing in his sleep
How many lives will be spoiled out in the open?
Due to someone's own faith
How many lives will be sparred in one moment?
Different religions, but still the same
How many flags will be raised and be shown?
To prove that the world can really change
After every war has been fought and then it's over
Who will be left to blame?
So we'll sing, sing, sing in our sleep
We'll sing, sing, sing in our sleep
We'll sing, sing, sing in our sleep
We'll sing, sing, sing in our sleep
