I had a dream, woke up this morning
With tears in my eyes and pain in my heart
Wasted lives with empty screams
Was it a dream? No... all is for real
Oh, all is for real
We are the children of a blooddripping world
And we do just tolerate
That they're playing chess with our souls
They can go to Hell, they wouldn't notice, they're so blind
So let's put them to jail before they're screwing up our minds
Cos when they push on the button
They kiss each other goodbye
They'll do it all of a sudden
And there's no time to cry
We are united by our music and by our fate
So they'll never change us
They'll never lay our hands in chains
No, they'll never lay our hands in chains
Rise
Let them hear what you're saying
My friends, oh yeah
Rise
Raise yourself from the ashes
Don't wait
Rise
Let them hear what you're saying
My friends, oh yeah
Rise
Raise yourself from the ashes
So let's try to be strong
And never betray our souls
We all know what's wrong
Those leaders are just too old
Yeah, they're all are just too old
Rise
Let them hear what you're saying
My friends, oh yeah
Rise
Raise yourself from the ashes
Don't wait
I had a dream, woke up this morning
With tears in my eyes and pain in my heart
Wasted lives with empty screams
Was it a dream? No...all is for real
For real
