Wake The Dead Lyrics

This is the city of the dead
Another life owes its rearing head
We all, we try, we live, to rot
Caring deep, trying to get by
Waiting for the going
and you took me, should it be here?
We only dream of difference
City sleeping, unaware
Break the silence, wake the dead
Running through these streets alone
I can't get sleep, let's break this hole?
Cus' I swear, and this was rather useless
I promise you, we've come this far
And I'm not stopping, I'm not stopping now
I'm not hiding in the shadows
Wake up
Saying this passage is clear

You said, you said, you said
this time was gonna be different
wake up the dead
[2x]

Come in alive, something stirs inside
This isn't over yet
Take off the dirt
Swallow regret
Stop living under the weight
Living under the weight of regret
Your regrets
Don't lose all...
Your regrets
Don't lose all...
Don't let it happen to you
Don't lose all...
Which side are you gonna choose?
Cus' I'm only, I believe in seeing you RISE!

We said, we said, we said
This time was gonna be different
Wake up the dead
[4x]

definetly the most powerful song from comeback kid, if the whole album is going to be like this then its gonna rip. the chorus in the end "we said we said we said....." is the best piece of chorus singing ever put on track it gives me shivers.

this new album is so amazingly good.

"false idols fall" is the best song on it, but this comes close.

I totally agree with both comments, the end of Wake the Dead just makes you really want to go to their concert and just sing it out loud!

man this song is fuckn sick!!!!!! that and partners in crime are my fav songs from the album... ahaha and best thing is that theres a local band here and the singer sounds just like cbk's singer!!!! ah man im stoked to hear them play.

this song is rilly straight forward.

Amazing song, I think is about when you expect something from someone (in this is song I think is about government or politics or something like that) and they promise a lot of things, a better life or a better country and they just don't do anything, so this song is basicly about breaing the silence (BREAK THE SILENCE, WAKE THE DEAD)and wake the dead makes reference to all of us, that most of the times we stay like in a ''dead'' state, so this is a protest to ask for a change, a protest to make all those liars to make true all of their promises or scream at their faces that we want the change for that better life that they promissed, and that we won't stay quiet.

these ones are accurate.

This is our city of the dead Another life holds its weary head We hope, we try, we live, survive Counting days, trying to get by Waiting for the calling Anticipation in the air We hope and dream of difference City sleeping, unaware

Break the silence, WAKE THE DEAD Running through these streets alone I'll kick and scream, let's break the hold Cuz I swear, and this won't render useless I promise you, we've come this far And I'm not stopping, I'm not stopping now I'm not hiding in shadows Wake up, Send out this message, it's clear

You said, you said, you said this time was gonna be different WAKE UP THE DEAD [2x]

Coming alive, something stirs inside This isn't over yet Shake off the dirt Swallow regret Stop living under the weight Living under the weight of regret Your regrets DON'T LOSE HOPE Don't let it happen to you DON'T LOSE HOPE Which side are you gonna choose? Cuz I believe, I believe it's in you RISE!

We said, we said, we said This time was gonna be different WAKE UP THE DEAD [4x]

maybe about doing somthing at night like it could be anything from egging a house to robing it a house or doing somthing bad at night and you have been waiting and your not going to hide and you said this time it was going to be diffrent and your not going to be a scared and do it. and theyve come to far.

The end of this song from 'we said, we said, we said' pretty much gives you the biggest urge to shout with the song. So much energy, this song along with Partners in Crime has to be the best.

i love shout-a-longs in songs. it makes the song just that much better. i can already picture these guys playing in a small venue place with no stage, and just letting the fans scream out every word. fuckin amazing that would be.

This is an amazing song. I saw them play this song live...just wild. Any way this song has to do with their home town of winnipeg. You see the goverment has been promising to clean up the north end which is very run down and a sketchy area but has done nothing. They are telling them to clean it up and follow threw with what they promised
