Album: Never Enough

2001 Lyrics

Well I've been looking 

Looking for an answer 

Somebody promised me one 

And I've been waiting 

Waiting for the chance 

Well somebody said it would come 

Wake me up when we hit 2001

I've been talking 

Talking to the maker 

Of the compromise 

They said she's fine 

Call the undertaker 

You shouldn't look surprised 

Wake me up when we hit 2001

It's barely alive with a story at five 

So turn your video on 

We live in these years dark age of fear 

Meet me in 2001

I saw my sister 

Saw the ones who twist her 

A social suicide 

If looks could kill 

Each and every cheap thrill 

Could be a homicide 

Wake me up when we hit 2001

It's barely alive with a story at five 

So turn your video on 

We live in these years dark age of fear 

Meet me in 2001

I've searching 

Searching for a reason 

To either fight or fly 

Either way patriot or treason 

It's gonna be one long hard ride 

Wake me up when we hit 2001
