Lyrics

[Verse 1] You can look a hurricane right in the eye Twelve hundred people dead or left to die Follow the leaders, were it an eye for an eye We'd all be blind, deaf or murdered, of this I'm sure In this uncertain time [Chorus] So come and pull the sheet over my eyes So I can sleep tonight despite what I've seen today I've found you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time When you should have been wide awake [Verse 2] Down on the road the world is floating by The poor and undefended left behind While you're somewhere trading lives for oil As if the whole world were blind, hey [Chorus] Well, come and pull the sheet over my eyes So I can sleep tonight despite what I've seen today I've found you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time When you should have been wide awake [Solo] [Chorus] So come and pull the sheet over my eyes So I can sleep tonight despite what I've seen today I've found you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time When you should have been wide awake [Outro] Wide awake Wide awake Wide awake Wide awake
