sleeper awake

Sarah Blasko

Some of us don t know why
We were born into this world
Sometimes can t sleep at night
Worrying about the world fearing it as it turns

Use your hands you know that they are worthy
Use your hands you know you love to get them dirty

You ve been lying on a bed
Seeing no way
Crying all the time
Nearly dead
Secrets are lies
Lying in vain
Sleeper awake
Sleeper awake

Some of us don t know that
We were born and sold a lie
Sometimes can t speak, we try
But our voice cannot be heard

Use your hands don t be afraid of standing up for something
Use your hands I know you love to get them dirty

You ve been lying on a bed
Seeing no way
Crying all the time
Nearly dead
Secrets are lies
You re lying in vain
Sleeper awake
Sleeper awake

You ve been lying on a bed
Seeing no way
Crying all the time
Living dead
Secrets are lies
You re lying in vain
Sleeper awake
Sleeper awake

You ve been lying on a bed
Seeing no way
Crying all the time
Living dead
Secrets are lies
You re lying in vain
Sleeper awake
Sleeper awake
