"Reptiles (We Woke Up)" lyrics

"Reptiles (We Woke Up)"

Nobody's talking so the graves they rose up!
And walked away
What's the point in this futile
Like reptiles we'll all soon be
Dust someday
Someday

Like all godless children
The young bloods are bleeding to
Find their way
Let's not mess with their future our past revolutions have
Somehow failed

For once in this life
Let's' just make these wrongs right and then
Seize the day

We woke up!
We woke up!
Yeah, we woke up!
We woke up!

And we won't fall back to sleep
Desperation, creators, begrudgers, the haters all
Disappear

There's no joy in salvation
When souls are deflated so
Keep the faith

For once in this life
Let's' just make these wrongs right and then
Seize the day

Where lessons are lessons
To be taught when we learn to say

That we woke up!
We woke up!
Yeah, we woke up!
We woke up!

Ah! Sing me a song where the voices are strong and the Earth
The Earth in shakes

From the thunder so loud to the rebels we found still awake

Sing it!

We woke up!
Yeah, we woke up!
We woke up!

I said that

We woke up!
We woke up!
We woke up!
We woke up!

And we won't fall back to sleep
