We're just sitting here waiting for the end of the world
The alarm was sounded long ago but nobody heard
From the water, to the land, and upward into the sky
No solutions, only paranoia, ignorance, and lies
We're sleepwalking our way off of the edge of a cliff
We're being led by politicians led by lobbyists
If there are survivors they look back at us with only disdain
How could so many see it happen and have nothing to say?
We're sleepwalking our way into the eye of the sun
The earth will flourish again when all of us are gone
Our time has come
Yeah we're just waiting for the midnight sun
I thought they'd like it better here
Said the world as it turned its head
Our time has come
Now we're just waiting for the midnight sun
I thought they'd like it better here
Said the world
It's impossible for anyone to ignore all the signs
An earthquake like a dog shaking off a flea from a bite
Or send a rising tide to shore to try to wash off the burn
It's happening more each day but will anybody learn?
The party's over when we reach the point of no return
We had our fun but it's a tab that no one here can afford
We're sleepwalking our way into the cage of the beast
Mother earth is trying to say You're no longer welcome here!
Our time has come
Now we're just waiting for the midnight sun
I thought they'd like it better here
Said the world as it turned its head
Our time has come
Now we're just waiting for the midnight sun
I thought they'd like it better here

Our time has come (We're sleepwalking our way into the cage of the beast)
