Sleeping in a bed
Ceiling overhead
And you wonder
What are you waking for?
Calling outer space
Where stars were put in place
And you read them
Spelling out your name
Now you’ve got the key
Endless possibilities
Do you know just what
What you’re waiting for?
Now speeding up you see
Responsibility
So you open up
What you have inside
Marching to the sound
Of motion underground
Do you know what,
What you’re fighting for?
There’s no hesitating
I know why I’m waking
And I know what
What I’m looking
Forward, forward to
Forward, forward
Creatures that create
Only levitate
When they know what
What they’re “making” for
Join the mass debate
When grace truly awakes
Then you’ll see what
What you have in store
I know we all stand up in the end
I know we all stand up
What are we waiting for?
