What if it was you sleeping in a bed of clouds
You live to work and work to live without a single doubt
Thick white sheets as a shield that keeps you safe and sound

Now wake up, dear, wake up now
Wake up, dear, the Sun is out

What if it was you turning on the news 'bout war
Countries fighting over things that happened way before you were born
You just pray, pray and pray that it will all be okay in the morning

Wake up, dear, wake up now
Wake up, dear, we're going down

This is home, I know, but dear, we gotta leave
Try to stuff your whole life in a backpack of memories
Before you even get the chance to wake your family
You hear a bang, bang, one more silent man, mission complete

Wake up, dear, wake up now
Wake up, dear, I need you here
Wake up, dear, wake up, please
Wake up, dear, we need you now
