lyrics

Last thing I remember that chamber was slender
I’m straight razor shaven then taped up with sensors
Restraints made of leather, tubes fed through a sender
My anus, my penis, my sinuses entered

Rotated perpendicular to the center
The temperature dropped, locked in life support tethers
When I first enlisted this seemed like adventure
But sleeping for this long now sounds like forever

The lights and the bleeps and my heart rate all faded
To nothingness, gave in to full hibernation
I’ve waited and waited for ages in stasis
Today is the day I awaken

[CHORUS]
Wake up! Rise and shine
Wipe the night’s sleep from your eyes
Make the donuts, now’s the time
Yawn and stretch and come alive
Wake up! Straight away
Smell the coffee, face the rays
Up and at ‘em, no delay
Carpe diem, seize the day

Now that I’ve awakened in space without aging
My muscles in atrophy, everything’s aching
My first steps are taken on legs that are shaking
Then find my mind seized by these crises I take in

The temperature’s rising, the climate is changing
And millions infected with biblical plague, and
Our leaders have shamelessly strained race relations
This can’t be the future, someone was mistaken

This world and its people were meant to get better
But things are much worse now by every known measure
If I had endeavored to foresee such terror
I would have just slept for forever

[CHORUS]

Like a full-grown newborn kicking through a new door
Thinking that I might have been a fool for
Booking me a one-way ticket to travel
To a cruel stop dropped on my top like an anvil

It’s a new dawn, new day, better get the bed made
It’s a new goddamn decade
Traded inventory of a life that I left
For a horrifying house as mortifying as death

Get up
I'm up
