(S. Weber/M. Schumpelt/J.O. Soerup)
Too many people living in a secret world
time goes by so very slowly

You heared every word that was spoken tonight
You don't want to sit here
You don't want to talk
the candle's burning down like your conversation
you just sit there, you don't want to talk
too many people living in a secret world
and time goes by so very slowly
wake up, wake up, You can make it if you try
wake up, stand up, You can cross the borderline
try to get over and try to get on
wake up, wake up it's time to rise
and if days go by so very slowy, , It's time to rise
It's time to rise, take away the tears you cry
You better hear what I say, You can make it if you try
