Decadence Lyrics

(You've gotta wake up)

You don't commit to me, you won't make a start

You don't tell me no, you haven't got the heart

You sit in the chair or you lie in bed

With a faraway stare and a swollen head

Well listen here, my lover, I have had enough

And I can tell you, brother, I could fall in love

With someone who looks a lot like you

But gets up and does what he's thinking of

I can't wait another day

I can give and I can take

There's a choice you have to make

 So many times things pass you by

 Imagination running wild

 You've got to start choosing right from wrong

 Instead of daydreaming all day long

I want to catch a plane to an open space

I want to feel the sun shining on my face

But time is short and waiting is long

My patience is exhausted, I'm just not that strong

I want to see the parade, you wanna watch TV

So we don't do either, it's insanity

You say there's plenty of time, and life is good

So you never make your mind up, well, you never could

I can ask you when or why

And you'll look up to the sky

The parade is marching by

 So many times things pass you by

 Imagination running wild

 You've got to start choosing right from wrong

 Instead of daydreaming all day long

 (Daydreaming) Oooh

 (Daydreaming)

 (Daydreaming)

 (Daydreaming) Oooh

 (Daydreaming)

 (Daydreaming)

(You've gotta wake up, you've gotta wake up)

(Leave me alone, I'm only dreaming)

(You've gotta wake up, you've gotta wake up)

(Leave me alone, I'm only dreaming)

(You've gotta wake up, you've gotta wake up)

(I'm only dreaming)

I can't wait another day

I can give and I can take

There's a choice I have to make, oooh

 So many times things pass you by

 Imagination running wild

 You've got to start choosing right from wrong

 Instead of daydreaming all day long

 So many times things passing by

 Imagination running wild

 You've got to start choosing right from wrong

 Instead of daydreaming all night long

 (Daydreaming) So many times

 (Daydreaming) Things pass you by

 (Daydreaming) You've gotta choose right from wrong

 (Daydreaming) All day long

 All day long
