Wake up, wake up Open your eyes the man behind the curtain is telling us lies Casting smoke and mirrors spreading hate and fear turning one against the other it only ends in tears Wake up, wake up we're dying by the hour Get up, get out and fight the power They have poisoned the water our land and air all for the mighty dollar without conscience or care We have lost our innocence complied with demands now we are numb to violence with guns in our hands Wake up, wake up we're dying by the hour Get up, get out and fight the power There is power in our hearts, Power in our minds, Power in our feet, lets take it to the lines There is power in our voice Power in our hands Power in our numbers time to rise and make a stand Wake up, wake up we're dying by the hour Get up, get out and fight the power

I can't hear you now in this city of sin Not even an echo in the places we've been My heart is an outlaw and I travel with the wind But I'm dreaming of the fallen again All the streets are broken, the gaslights are dim But the children of glass and stone are making music again And the ring around the moon is a sign to begin Seeking out the fallen again Dry your eyes, my child, dry your eyes You live in darkness now but the fallen soon will rise And you are one of those whose wings will fill the skies So dry your eyes, my child, dry your eyes I'm trying to hear you now in this city of sin I search every street and alley and the places we've been From the blackness to the comfort, from the heartbeat to the whim Help me find the fallen again

Seven Billion people in this world – what ya gonna do? Seven Billion people on the earth just trying to make it through… 7 Billion 8 hundred nine-teen million seventy thousand and two… I wouldn’t want you to think that I’d ever forget about you. Will you be the one? To take me by the hand / to find the better place, To make me understand Is The loss of only us, the gain we seek for all? Will the promise of the real be your Answer when I call? Will you be the one? Will you be the one? Will you be the one to stand up if I fall - Are old enough to tell / Young enough to risk it all? Up above the skies - Are you walking on the moon? Are you dancing in the garden making flowers bloom? All this truth can’t tell itself. All this fear won’t heal itself. All these words can’t mean themselves I disappear in to this song. Will you be the one? Can you spill the love? Can you let it go? Falling from above … Can you picture it? Without a proper frame -- Can you say the words not written on the page? 7 Billion people in this world – but not enough to see the view from the horizon to the bottom of the seas… Can we change the climate, can we stop the hurt? Is this like our assign---ment? Can we make it work? All this truth can’t speak itself All this hatred won’t heal itself And all these songs won’t sing themselves Until you lift your voice with mine… Will you tell the truth – can you tell it from the lies? Will you blow the roof off this bloody compromise? Can you spill the love, can make a start? Will you be the fire that burning in my heart? 7 Billion people on this earth -- but not enough to see Through your telescope of fate – thru your mask of mystery … Can you spill the love, will you dare to make a start? Can you be the fire that burns deep inside my heart? Will you be the one?
