They sing their songs by firelight I watch them dull their minds These foolish drunks and diplomats Trust a hero with their lives Do lies and empty promises Give hopeless men relief? Is ignorance their innocence? Do they walk the world asleep? I am cunning, they're complicit I am coming, they dismiss it Let their creature comforts blind them I have come here to remind them I am wakeful I am watchful I am unafraid to fight I will stir you from slumber I will never say good night I am wakeful I am watchful I am unafraid to fight I will tear you from your treasures I will never say good night We're all guilty of something For every gift there is a sin It depends on where you're standing Where you are and where you've been We're all guilty of something Cutting corners, casting stones We are none of us immortal We are all of us alone We're all guilty of something For every give there is a take We pretend to love the victims of The choices that we make We're all guilty of something Either past or present tense Who will save you from your shadow? Who will come to your defense? We're all guilty of something For every wrong there is a right We'll make any lie a lullaby If it helps us sleep at night We're all guilty of something Every day this quiet war I am here to wake you up I am opening that door I am wakeful I am watchful I am unafraid to fight I will stir you from slumber I will never say good night I am wakeful I am watchful I am unafraid to fight I will tear you from your treasures I will never say good night
