Sleeper, Rise

Arise, wake up
Sleeper, for the time has come
Sleeper, there's a song to be sung
There's a dance to be done, and a war to be won
Chains to be broken, eyes to be open
Sleeper, rise from the dead
Morning is coming again

See us dancing, singing
You find it intriguing
There are days that you almost join in
But you're addicted to dreams that are keeping you under
Comforting things, prisons of slumber
But morning's coming, and time is running out

Arise, wake up
Sleeper, for the time has come
Sleeper, there's a song to be sung
There's a dance to be done, and a war to be won
There's chains to be broken, eyes to be open
Sleeper, rise from the dead
Morning is coming again

All this while you've been sleepwalking
A purposeless dance with no song
There it goes, with the wind
In a moment and everything is gone
Desperately reaching again and again
The answers always slips out of your hand
You can paint poison apples golden
But what you don't understand-
Is that dead men like you,
Cannot sing like we can!

Arise, wake up
Sleeper, for the time has come
Oh friend there's a song to be sung
There's a dance to be done, and there's a war to be won
There's chains to be broken, and eyes to be open
Sleeper, rise from the dead
Morning is coming again

He will shine, and it'll be dark no more
It will always shine like the day
Don't waste anymore time
Come and be awake
