Wake Me Up When It’s Over Lyrics by Riding The Low

The Death of Gobshite Rambo

2022

If this is the greatest time of our lives
Then wake me up when it's over
If this is the greatest time of our lives
Then wake me up when it’s over
This skin is just assumed
I wear my disguise
Put it on when I'm brave
So no one gets by
I've seen with my own eyes
They fall from the clouds
All the angels that rage
We got a lot of love to make
But they came to dine out
Killed all the babies
And blocked the fire escapes
I know the law
But if it’s war
And if I have you near
I know survival's the soundest choice
If this is the greatest time of our lives
Then wake me up when it's over
If this is the greatest time of our lives
Then wake me up when it's over
This skin is just assumed
These are my insides
And one day they will tire
Forever die out
Well, this is the voice that I have found
And I can actually relate
But one day will tire out
If this is freedom now
Then I've made a mistake
Take me to the estate
The streets I ran down
I'd take it all back
But it might be too late
For a taste of the rage
All back to my house
Yeah, you gotta take me on back there
Take me on, make a beggar of you right now
Every day is armageddon here
Every day is armageddon here
[Bridge: Robert Pollard]
So when that artificial moon comes crashing down
Who controls the tides?
Our horoscopes determined by the artificial light
Our moods and our inner lives
But what about the werewolves?
In a sky filled with artificial eyes
Who will be thy guide?
Who will be thy guide?
So who will be thy guide?
Oh no, who will be that guy?
This suit I have formed has gone all out of shape
Oh, won't you take me on back there
The truth will come out at the time and place
Oh, won't you take me on back there?
(This is the time, the time is right now)
(This is the time, but we don’t know how)
It’s time to fight now but I'm all out of shape
Oh, won’t you take me on back there?
(This is the time, the time is right now)
(This is the time, it's time to fight now)
Won't you take me on back there?
(But we don't know how)
Yeah, won’t you take me on back there?
If this is the greatest time of our lives
Then wake me up when it's over
If this is the greatest time of our lives
Then wake me up when it's over
