You make promise of protection
To a future after life
To the final resurrection
And to eternal paradiseBut then I'm blinded with temptation
And to every mortal sin
Is it God that sits there waiting
Or will the darkness suck me in?Let's wake up the dead, oh yeah
It's better than never you know
More tears are shed, oh yeah
I'm praying that you'll never know
That I'm facing hellOh the children sit and listen
The belief was in their eyes
In a land without tomorrows
Through the night you hear their criesBut then your eyes just skip the pages
Of a book that never ends
Is it God that sits there waiting?
Do you hear the call again?Let's wake up the dead, oh yeah
It's better than never you know
More tears are shed, oh yeah
I'm praying that you'll never know
That I'm facing hellIt's just crazy world we live in and I'm out of my mind
You pray tomorrow but your leaving today
Evil one is coming and he's knocking your door
'Cause today's the day you'll payLet's wake up the dead, oh yeah
It's better than never you know
More tears are shed, oh yeah
I'm praying that you'll never knowLet's wake up the dead, oh yeah
It's better than never you know
More tears are shed, oh yeah
I'm praying that you'll never knowThat I'm facing hell
That I'm facing hell
That I'm facing hell
That I'm facing hell
