It seems like these minutes are getting longer

Waiting for these lights to go down

So clench your fist and hold your head up high

We are not alone in this crowd



I pray that this won't be the last time that our stories share the stage

This is the reason we have come, why we'll never leave the same

It's your face that we want to see; you're the notes in this melody

In this song of life that you sing with me



There were so many nights that I sang these words out into the open air

I never knew that you would be the one who sang back into my ears

Wake up wake up now! I never thought that I would see this day come to pass

Wake up wake up now! If this is who I am I know I can't be sleeping



It is not enough to be silent and never make a sound

So move your feet, come on and be different; stand out

It is not enough to be silent and never make a sound

So move your feet, come on and be different, just stand out!



There were so many nights that I sang these words out into the open air

I never knew that you would be the one who sang back into my ears

Wake up wake up now! I never thought that I would see this day come to pass

Wake up wake up now! If this is who I am I know I can't be sleeping



I need to hear your voice

I can't sing this on my own

We're stronger when we stand as one (x2)



There were so many nights that I sang these words out into the open air

I never knew that you would be the one who sang back into my ears

Wake up wake up now! I never thought that I would see this day come to pass

Wake up wake up now! If this is who we are we know that we can't be sleeping
