Lyrics

When you sleep
No one is homeless
When you sleep
You can't feel their hunger
When you sleep
No one is lonely in a dream
Without classes
Without nations..
When you sleep
She's standing there with open arms
And one night can last forever
And if you asked her
She'd never let go
And you'd stay forever..

And the sun's always rising
In the sky somewhere
And if young hearts should explode
From all the lies they've been told..

Let the new night bring you peace
And the promise of tomorrow
Where we can wake to a new beginning
Tomorrow, I'll have only lost their faces-
My friends and family
Memories of all we had
And the times we should have lived
And tomorrow america just might fall apart
Tomorrow, tell me
Where will you wake up?
Beyond title, beyond lease, careers and laws
Something more than borders on a map..

And the sun's always rising in the sky somewhere
And if young hearts should explode
From all the lies they've been told..
To live through one night like this
I would trade it for the silence..
