What if it was you sleeping in a bed of clouds You live to work and work to live without a single doubt Thick white sheets as a shield that keeps you safe and sound Now wake up, dear, wake up now Wake up, dear, the Sun is out What if it was you turning on the news 'bout war Countries fighting over things that happened way before you were born You just pray, pray and pray that it will all be okay in the morning Wake up, dear, wake up now Wake up, dear, we're going down This is home, I know, but dear, we gotta leave Try to stuff your whole life in a backpack of memories Before you even get the chance to wake your family You hear a bang, bang, one more silent man, mission complete Wake up, dear, wake up now Wake up, dear, I need you here Wake up, dear, wake up, please Wake up, dear, we need you now
