Madman's Dream Lyrics

I saw cities swallowed by the ocean

I saw children crying in the streets

Hundreds stranded on the overpass

Bodies rotting in the brutal heat



Cries for help fell on deaf ears

5 days passed and no one came

Pointing fingers while the people died

I saw a nation hang it's head in shame



CHORUS

Have I awakened

Deep inside some madman's dream?

This is not my country

This is not what I believe

Have I awakened

Deep inside some madman's dream?

I can barely recognize

The place this used to be



Anarchy in the empty streets

The law dissolved like so much smoke

A dying prayer for the humanity

That washed away when the levees broke



(CHORUS)



A year went by and nothing changed

No justice left for the destitute

Abandoned cities, abandoned souls

Tomorrow's dream is yesterday's news



(CHORUS)
