lyrics

words keep running 'round like dying chickens
desperate to be said
looking for the big ideas
untried and mute
like statues in the heads

of the sleepy people
see all those sleepy people
wake up
wake up
shake up the clichéd speech

lexicons and twisted tongues
are stilled and emptied where they once
hunted answers
hid by shadowed language
confounding eloquent response

of the sleepy people
see all those sleepy people
wake up
wake up
shake up the clichéd speech

running stale
at the mouth again
walking easy street
drifting thoughtlessly
succumbed
numbing veins
hide the same mistakes
stalking blatantly
talking vacantly in tongues
amongst
those sleepy people

of the sleepy people
see all those sleepy people
wake up
wake up
shake up the clichéd speech
