Kiss the Thief - Wake Up Lyrics

I look left, I look right
They're raising flags they're starting fights
Don't ask why nobody knows
Pick a side, wrong or right
Last time I checked it wasn't black and white
It's hard to tell who's friend or foe

Oh, can't you see
That we don't care we don't understand
When we're the ones with blood on our hands
Your words they mean nothing to me
But they're spreading round like a disease

Wake Up, don't give up on us
Now you have a chance
To face up, have you done enough
The powers in your hands

Old dogs with old tricks
They flash a smile and then crack their whips
They've tried to fool us for too long
All the hate that they spit
Why build a wall when you could build a bridge?
Everyone needs to belong

But it's plain to see
That they don't care they don't understand
No, they just keep their heads in the sand
Soon they'll find that they're in too deep
I wonder how they manage to sleep

Wake Up, don't give up on us
Now you have a chance
To face up, have you done enough
The powers in your hands
Wake Up, don't give up on us
Now you have a chance
To face up, have you done enough
The powers in your hands
