They built our life before us, we had no choice
“Rise up and be free”, voice whispered to me

Pick up the pieces you see before you
The old leaders' bones still beat on our homes
Awake c'mon, c'mon and awake
And silently soak up the day
So let your reasons be true to you
And on this night there'll be no peace
And in this way you will awake
And in this way you will awake and this way you will awake
Across the bare face of the sleeping lake
The evil that's been done still is carrying on
And in this way you will awake and this way you will awake
Stay close to your friends up until the end
Don't rush and don't you roam, don't feel so alone
The evil that's been done still is carrying on
You know wherever you go the world will follow

Go climb up on the hill, stand perfectly still
Don't let your weaknesses destroy you
And when they know that you feel the same way
And in this way you will awake
And when they're gone we'll be the voice

Blue bird on the rock, slow wind blowing soft
Rise up and be free and die happily
And in this way you will awake
