You made a promise of protection
To a future after life
To the final resurrection
Until eternal paradise
But then I`m blinded with temptation
Into every mortal sin
Is it God that sits there waiting
Or will the darkness suck me in
Let`s wake up the dead, oh yeah
It`s better than never ya know
More tears are shed, I`m praying that you`ll never know
That I`m facing hell
Oh the children sit and listen, the belief was in their eyes
In a land with no tomorrows, through the night you hear their cries
But then your eyes just skip the pages of a book that never ends
Is it God that sits there waiting
Do you hear the call again?
Let`s wake up the dead, oh yeah
It`s better than never ya know
More tears are shed, I`m praying that you`ll never know
That I`m facing hell
It`s just a crazy world we live in and I`m out of my mind
You`ll pray tomorrow but you`re leaving today
Evil one is coming and he`s knockin` your door
Cause today`s the day you pay
Let`s wake up the dead, oh yeah
It`s better than never ya know
More tears are shed, I`m praying that you`ll never know
Let`s wake up the dead, oh yeah
It`s better than never ya know
More tears are shed, I`m praying that you`ll never know
That I`m facing hell
