While You Were Asleep

They came while you were asleep And then they took you rights away They spoke while you were a dreaming So you tucked your tail and booked your holiday Run boy, run But you know, down at the core The day will come When you know you just can't take it anymore You're not dying but you're not living Now's no time to simply watch and wait Stop denying, stop forgiving 'Cause there's not much time 'til it could be too late They came while you were asleep And then they dragged you out the door They walked right into your dream And now it seems you're never heard from anymore Find your spine You can fight this if you want Draw your line Don't play deaf, dumb and blind like some brain dead dilettante You're not blind but you're not seeing There's not much time 'til they could steal your fate Stop complying, start decreeing Now's the time to start to agitate You're not trying 'cause you're still kneeling Stop denying you don't know what's at stake I'm not lying, it's your rights they're stealing You know I won't stop trying until we're all awake
