lyrics

The world is sleeping
There's darkness all around
They say its time
They say it helps somehow

They say it helps
They say it mends
Instead it bends the mind with dreams

I join in sometimes, most times
But I see less clearly when my eyes are closing

They dream
They dream so long
They long
They long so deep
They're looking up but digging down
Wake up sleeping world
Your father calls to you
Wake up sleeping world

Time is getting on, its been so long
I'm getting tired
Its hard to stay awake when to you a day's a thousand years

No one dreams of sleeping
Why should I sleep? They don't dream of sleep
They sleep to dream of waking up
I'm up! Woah!

They dream
They dream so long
They long
They long so deep
They're looking up but digging down
Wake up sleeping world
Your father calls to you
Wake up sleeping world
They dream
They dream so long
They long
They long so deep
They're looking up but digging down
Wake up sleeping world
Your father calls to you
Wake up sleeping world

..."Sleeping in the light
Out of sight
If I close my eyes you can't see me
Right?"...
