lyrics

Well I see colours, so I figured it out...
If you put us all together we could make a perfect rainbow, but ya can't make a rainbow in just black and white,
You need everyone, everything, put everything together to have some sort of insight....

GET UP, GET UP, MAKE A STAND...
WRAP YOUR LEGS AROUND YOUR LOVERS BACK,
GET UP, GET UP, MAKE A STAND...
WRAP YOUR ARMS AROUND THE WORLD,
AND YOUR LEGS AROUND YOUR LOVERS BACK,
SO WE MAY SLEEP IN PEACE, AND NOT SLEEP LIKE FALLEN TREES, SLEEP IN PEACE AND NOT SLEEP LIKE FALLEN TREES...

I wanna know the truth in you...I wanna know makes you, you...
I wanna know what makes you run away and flea,
I wanna know what makes you stand up and fight for who you're meant to be...

(CHORUS)

Hey! I see more adverts everyday...
telling m to buy more stuff and throw my good things away,
see, no one fixes shit today...
I'm swapping technology for theology, any remedy, any remedy that's fine with me....

GET UP, GET UP, MAKE A STAND...
FIND SOMEONE WHO HAS WHAT YOU LACK,
GET UP, GET UP, MAKE A STAND...
WRAP YOUR ARMS AROUND THE WORLD,
AND YOUR LEGS AROUND YOUR LOVERS BACK,
SO WE MAY SLEEP IN PEACE, AND NOT SLEEP LIKE FALLEN TREES, SLEEP IN PEACE AND NOT SLEEP LIKE FALLEN TREES...

Sleep like fallen trees.... oh yeah... sleep like fallen trees....
