Wide Awake

Current Song in Head: Wide Awake, Audioslave

Dear Blog, I have a confession to make. After years of supporting Coldplay, I think I finally have a change of heart. I think my favourite band now is Audioslave. Tsk. Tsk. Pity that they have just broken up then.

Anyway, this post might have came a little too late, but 'Wide Awake' is most definitely a song targetted at the Doofus Ignornamous running the US of A. Katrina, Iraq, its all in it. I especially like the line,'While you're somewhere trading lives for oil, as if the whole world were blind.' Sweet. Can't get anything more direct than that.

Here's the lyrics of the song for you guys.

Wide Awake

You can a look a hurricane right in the eye

1200 people dead or left to die

Follow the leaders were it an eye for an eye we'll all be blind

Deaf or murder, of this I'm sure, in this uncertain time

So come pull the sheet over my eyes

So I can sleep tonight

Despite what I've seen today

I find you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time

When you should have been wide awake

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

So come pull the sheet over my eyes

So I can sleep tonight

Despite what I've seen today

I find you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time

When you should have been wide awake

Come pull the sheet over my eyes

So I can sleep tonight

Despite what I've seen today

I find you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time

When you should have been wide awake

Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake!
