Wake the Dead

Make way for the rising tide There's nothing left on the other side Too late to apologize No chance you can make this right I know you wanna keep me buried I've been waking over every word you said What will you do when your world stops turning? Do you really wanna wake the dead? If they try to divide us with silence Cut the deadweight, bring the violence Bring the violence Don't say it's not enough, it's not enough I know you wanna keep me buried I've been waking over every word you said What will you do when your world stops turning? Do you really wanna wake the dead? So drag me through the flames (The flames) And drown me in your waves (And I'll rise) What will you do when your world stops turning? Do you really wanna wake the dead? Or we rise We rise (Rise) 'Cause iron sharpens iron And we were made in the fire We rise (Rise) We know your time is coming And you were born to expire I know you wanna keep me buried I've been waking over every word you said What will you do when your world stops turning? (Do you really wanna wake the dead?) So drag me through the flames (The flames) Drown me in your waves (And I'll rise) What will you do when your world stops turning? Do you really wanna wake the dead? Do you really wanna wake the dead?
