Wake me up if I'm dreaming
Put me to sleep if I'm awake
I hear the Earth, mother screaming
She's nearly had all she can take
People, where are we going
Why must we get there so fast?
We do things without really knowing
How long the side effects will last
Slow down people
Where are we going so fast?
There's still time to change the road we're on
Take the less traveled path
♪
What kind of sanity is this
Where phony values reign supreme?
When you're successful if you're rich?
We call it the American Dream
And in this land of sleepwalkers
What will cause us to awake?
And find the dream is really a nightmare
Leaves us unconscious in it's wake

Wake me up if I'm dreaming
Put me to sleep if I'm awake

She's nearly had all she can take
Well people, where are we going
Why must we get there so fast?
We do things without really knowing
How long the side effects will last
Slow down people
Where are we going so fast?
Well, there's still time to change the road we're on
Take the less travelled path
Yeah, there's still time to change the road we're on
Take the less travelled path
