Authority Zero – Lying Awake

Authority Zero – Lying Awake Lyrics

Artist: Authority Zero
Song: Lying Awake

Lying awake, lost in time
With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah
Here today, gone tomorrow
While drowning in all of their sorrows

At age 14, no inhibitions
And I sure as hell did not need your permission
Never looking forward, and I was never looking back
And I’d never known what’s next

But as the days had gone by
Both ignorant and blind
New visions of a world started filling my eyes
Tossing and turning with eyes open wide

That is where I find
I’m lying awake, lost in time
With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah
Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows
Years go by as we start to see
So many generations torn by poverty and greed
So many whining that their lives are oh so bad

But far better than so many, it’s sad
Becoming intoxicated by all of the madness
And all of the pain that they’ve been through
Hoping and searching, a world in despair

Right outside, no more
Lying awake, lost in time
With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah
Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows
There’s just got to some other way
The people are dying today
There’s just got to be some other time

That they are going to find
There’s just got to be some sort of progress
Some other way they’re going to know
There’s just got to be another means to an end

Here’s to hoping that it will show
Wake up
Like some people in our society
And it grows, planted like a seed

So what do we do when it comes down on you
Cries ring out as a chime for awakening
Taking time as you go, maybe don’t turn away
Maybe showing interest could show them light of day

Light of day
Well, it’s a pretty fine line as community paces
Stepping up to the edge daily different cases
Well, it’s a pretty fine line as community paces

Stepping up to the edge daily different cases
Third world tragedy, another in store
Another taste of what’s real, can they take anymore?
Another third world tragedy, another in store

Another taste of what’s real, can they take anymore?
Lying awake, lost in time
With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah
Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows
Lying awake, lost in time
With no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah
Here today, gone tomorrow

While drowning in all of their sorrows
Im lying awake
