Wake up, wake up,
Lets just go against our nation.
This is what we have become,
This is what deeds are made of.

Go look in the mirror.

Wake up, wake up,
Lets just go against our nation.
Wake up, wake up,
It just goes against our mission.

Go and steal a taste,
I can't see my face.
Go and steal a taste,
I can't see my face.

Wake up, wake up,
Lets just go against our nation.
This is what we have become,
This is what deeds are made of.

Wake up, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.
You've got to fight,
You've got to wake the fuck up.

Wake up, wake up,
This is more than you bargained for.
It's been so long since you've wanted more,
You've got to much man,
You've got too much.

Wake up, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.

    Song Meaning:my boyfriend is friends with Kyle, one of the members of the band. MEGA props to rSaEdAiNo for getting it almost exactly correct.

    kyle, my boyfriend, and the girl in the video (actually her) took too much dxm and the video is about what they experienced during the trip, which was obviously bad for all of them. there was a sober person there, kyle's brother.

    do not correct me, this is exactly what happened. anyone that said stuff like "He wants the American Public to end their capitalistic selfish ways before it is too late." and "This song is about Mitch telling his girlfriend to wake up because she sleeps too long into the day." is fucking dumb.

    Song Meaning:It's obviously about his friend who's overdosing and passing out.

    "Wake up, wake up
    This is more than you bargained for
    It took so long so you ate some more
    You did too much man, you did too much!"

    He's not waking up since he did too much, it's kind of obvious what it means.

    General Comment:To me it sounds like a conversation between a sober person and someone on a bad trip

    Sober guy: Wake up, wake up. telling bad trip guy to wake up
    Bad trip guy: This is no hallucination BTG saying he isnt hallucinating
    BTG: This is what we have become BTG saying hes seeing things the way they really are
    SG This is what dreams are made of telling BTG its just a dream
    BTG Go look in the mirror telling SG to look in the mirror because its real
    SG Wake up, wake up. This is no hallucination Arguing with himself? maby hes high too. dunno.
    SG Do we still exist? I can't see my face
    SG Or are we just not here? I can't see my face.
    SG Wake up, wake up. This is no hallucination
    SG This is what we have become
    SG This is now what dreams are made of
    SG Wake up, wake up
    SG Come on, come on you've got to wake the fuck up
    SG Wake up, wake up
    SG This is more than you bargained for saying BTG took too many shrooms or too much LSD whatever hes on
    SG It took so long so you ate some more the drugs didnt work immediatley so he took more
    SG You did too much man, you did too much! saying he did too much agaid

    This is what we have become
    This is now what dreams are made of

    Wake up, wake up [x7]

    Come on, come on you've got to wake the fuck up

    Wake up, wake up
    This is more than you bargained for
    It took so long so you ate some more
    You did too much man, you did too much!

    Wake up, wake up [x4]

    General Comment:Yeah the correct lyrics need to be up there, but I would definitely agree about it being probably being about a bad shroom trip
