Hey boy, don't believe 'em
The old lies never could come true
Hey boy, don't believe 'm
Everything that they told you to
Hey boy, don't believe 'em
We're the nation that needs our youth
Hey boy, don't believe 'em
None of us are bullet proof
YeahDeep down there's a boy inside
Asleep waiting for the sun to riseWake up, wake up.
I'm still looking for the blinding light
Still looking for the reason why
Still looking for the sun to shine
And take me higher and higher
All my life I've been living in the darkest night
I'm still looking for the blinding light
To take me higher and higherHey girl, be yourself now
Don't believe what they told you to
Hey girl, be yourself now
Your skin is more than the pin-up suit
Hey girl, don't conform now
No one else got a soul like you
Hey girl, you're a strong one
But none of us are bullet proof
YeahDeep down there's a hope inside
You've got wings but you're scared to flyWake up, wake up.
I'm still looking for the blinding light
Still looking for the reason why
Still looking for the sun to shine
And take me higher and higher
All my life I've been living in the darkest night
I'm still looking for the sun to shine
To take me higher and higher (higher)Deep down there's a hope inside
Brighter than the fears in my mind
Keep looking for the blinding light
It's the hope that keeps me aliveWake up, wake up.
Keep looking for the blinding light
Keep looking for the reason why
Keep looking for the sun to shine
And take me higher and higher
All my life I've been living in the darkest night
I'm still looking for the sun to rise
To take me higher and higherA blinding light
A blinding light
Yeah, I've been waiting all my life
To take me higher and higher
A blinding light
Yeah, a vision that gives me sight
Oh, the blinding light
Take me higher and higher
