I Woke Up in a Fucked-Up America
I went to sleep
I went to sleep
Anticipating
A dreamer
I fell deeper, deeper, deeper
Deeper in a dream
And I dreamed that I woke up
That I woke up
In a fucked-up America
Pained with gold, I slowed by
And I was cryin', cryin'
I woke up, I woke up
In a fucked-up, fucked-up America
Cryin' hard that my life was that here
Was now causin' tears
A wall, a wall
All about the wall, all about the wall
Arguin', boxin', and fightin' about the wall
All the way up a wall, I dreamed
I woke up in a fucked-up America
I looked happier
Seein' the better part of my dream
Of reality, of what the future would be
I woke up in a human fightin' industry
Some born abused
Computer-misusin'
All the vampires
I got a feed to the cloud
I woke up, woke up, woke up
Woke up in a fucked-up America
But I didn't float no town
And that broke no pound
And the next pound I'm holding
Around the world
Me, in an old carrier lodge
Free, free, free, free
Carrier lodge
I woke up and I woke up
(Free, free, free, free)
I woke up wide and worser than
(Free, free, free, free)
Break down a word with me
Make over the world
(In my sleep)
Word may know bounds
I woke up, I woke up
(Free, free, free, free)
It make me cry and cry
Father cried, humanity cryin'
And when my tears, in a fucked-up
I woke up, I woke up, I woke up
In a fucked-up, fucked-up, fucked-up America
All so fucked-up
(Free, free, free, free)
My freedom
(Free, free, free, free)
I woke up, I woke up
(Stop it, America)
In a fucked-up America
(In America)
Would you make it look at me?
I woke up, I woke up
(Before you go to class)
I woke up in a dream
In a dream, in death's dream
Please go
Let me out of this dream
Let me out of this dream
