Mr. Strange - Don't Stay (Where The Dead Ones Lay) lyrics

Why do we sit here lonely
Playing the waiting game?
I'm not the one and only
Endlessly changing lanes
So many drawn out faces
Eyes pleading for answers
Lost in so many places blaming lost chances
No matter what TV says
It's just a waking dream
We just accept it this way
Until the shotgun scream

Now get up you better get up
Don't stay where the dead ones lay
Living but not awake
Wake up for goodness sake
Living but not awake
Wake up for goodness sake

So what you gonna do now
Every day feels the same?
Ask Gods the "whys" and "hows"
Alleviate the pain
Your smile don't fool no one
Dogma does not fulfil
Logic deems it come undone
So you're back to the pills

Living dead

Now get up you better get up
Don't stay where the dead ones lay
Living but not awake
Wake up for goodness sake
Living but not awake
Wake up for goodness sake

This 9 to 5 shit stinks
But, you can't break the cycle to think
This world's got so much to see
But, you're stuck in a rut, trying to breathe

Don't stay there, don't stay
Don't stay where the dead ones lay
(Nothing's quite what it seems
You got lost in a dream)

"Some think they can run
But Time wait's for no one"

You're living a dream
Time to wake up, little sleepy head
Every day is the same slowly rotting
Waiting to be amongst the dead
We're not eternal, we are not forever
Don't let life pass you by
It might be gone too soon

Don't waste away, I love you, I
Love you, I love you, i love you
Oh sweet baby, I love you, I
Love you, I love you, i love you
