Another hard winter went and came In the suburbs in a box with no knife You're sleeping still with your choices and your wives In an office building insulated from the outside Next to your mother you lay, a perfect stranger beside Wake up, you're dreaming again Some more hard truths: God given a face Making the places we live in look like grace And there's just no way to know how long this will last But just freeze everything and see if it'll pass Or, or put it all on hold and see what takes You're in an alley forgotten - you're not surrounded by lakes Wake up, you're dreaming again And this is your nightmare This is the scene that you play This is the dream that you have When you know it's time to go and run away And this is important This may really be happening to you I'm watching you sleep Something has to get through I keep making rings, these rings around you Wake up, wake up Wake up, you're dreaming again Ringing in one more New Year's Eve all alone Heading to hills and the weeds are still overgrown Mark it another year that's fallen right into the cracks Are we learning anything? We will be able to come back? Well, the fear, it keeps us Wake up, you're dreaming again And here's to a building Cheers to a certain tougher skin You keep getting up from where you're at And starting over, and over, and over again The rock has no stop, stay frozen We will find you where you're at Lay there until you're bored to death And it's time to plan I hope you can make it Or make it back Wake up, you're dreaming again And this is your life now These are the choices that you've made This is the way that you feel in your heart The more it breaks I wonder if it's all real There's no easy way to rise and win One day it won't be this way So try to take it all in Take your time There's a trap and these circles that you happened to tie on Wake up, you're screaming Wake up, you're dreaming And this is your nightmare This is the scene that you play This is the dream that you have When you know it's time to go and run away And this is important This may really be happening to you I'm watching you sleep Something has to get through I keep making rings, these rings around you Wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up You're dreaming again edit: small grammatical fixes, also, this song is about both Detroit and a place called The Cryonic Institute in clinton township, Michigan (about 4 miles from where I live). Look up some pics; it's a creepy place full of creepy dead rich frozen people. Listener strikes again.
Guys you saved me from so much I can't explain it all in one comment but I will say this you guys are doing a beautiful thing your music saves lives and helps millions of more people than you guys will ever thank you for your music and our second chance at life that your music gives we love you
Can't wait to see you guys in Pittsburgh! It's been really cool to see your evolution as a band and witnessing a sound really come together. Your words always hit home, and so does the music. You're all amazing!
Yussss! YUUUUSSSS! thank you for the extra ear candy you just dropped. Just made my week! Still wish i didnt halfto work so i could have seen you in grandhaven mi!
This is just packed with passion, my friend just introduced me to your music and I've been falling down this emotional rabbit hole with you guys for the past few hours. Thoroughly enjoying the music and the depth and meaning of your lyrics.
The production need to dial down the music a notch or two. This is no disrespect to these amazing musicians. It is so I can make out the poetry better. His beautiful southern accent sometimes require extra concentration. But the music is absolutely necessary I believe turning up the audio on the vocals would be beneficial. And this is with all due respect to every member of the team that made this album.

Another hard winter went and came
In the suburbs in a box with no knife
You're sleeping still with your choices and your wives
In an office building insulated from the outside
Next to your mother you lay, a perfect stranger beside
Wake up, you're dreaming again
Some more hard truths:
God given a face
Making the places we live in look like grace
And there's just no way to know how long this will last
But just freeze everything and see if it'll pass
Or, or put it all on hold and see what takes
You're in an alley forgotten - you're not surrounded by lakes
Wake up, you're dreaming again
And this is your nightmare
This is the scene that you play
This is the dream that you have
When you know it's time to go and run away
And this is important
This may really be happening to you
I'm watching you sleep
Something has to get through
I keep making rings, these rings around you
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, you're dreaming again
Ringing in one more New Year's Eve all alone
Heading to hills and the weeds are still overgrown
Mark it another year that's fallen right into the cracks
Are we learning anything?
We will be able to come back?
Well, the fear, it keeps us
Wake up, you're dreaming again
And here's to a building
Cheers to a certain tougher skin
You keep getting up from where you're at
And starting over, and over, and over again
The rock has no stop, stay frozen
We will find you where you're at
Lay there until you're bored to death
And it's time to plan
I hope you can make it
Or make it back
Wake up, you're dreaming again
And this is your life now
These are the choices that you've made
This is the way that you feel in your heart
The more it breaks
I wonder if it's all real
There's no easy way to rise and win
One day it won't be this way
So try to take it all in
Take your time
There's a trap and these circles that you happened to tie on
Wake up, you're screaming
Wake up, you're dreaming
And this is your nightmare
This is the scene that you play
This is the dream that you have
When you know it's time to go and run away
And this is important
This may really be happening to you
I'm watching you sleep
Something has to get through
I keep making rings, these rings around you
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
You're dreaming again
