[Verse 1]
Hey boy, don't believe 'em
The old lies never could come true
Hey boy, don't believe 'em
Everything that they told you to
Hey boy, don't believe 'em
We're the nation that eats our youth
Hey boy, don't believe 'em
None of us are bullet proof
[PreChorus 1]
Deep down there's a boy inside
Asleep waiting for the sun to rise
Wake up, wake up
[Chorus]
I'm still looking for the blinding light
I'm still looking for the reason why
I'm still looking for the sun to shine
And take me higher and higher
All my life
I've been living in the darkest night
Still looking for the blinding light
To take me higher and higher
[Verse 2]
Hey girl, be yourself now
Don't believe what they told you to
Hey girl, be yourself now
Your skin's more than a pin-up suit
Hey girl, don't conform now
No one else got soul like you
Hey girl, you're a strong one
But none of us are bullet proof
[PreChorus 2]
Deep down there's a hope inside
You've got wings but you're scared to fly
Wake up, wake up
[Chorus]
[PreChorus 3]
Deep down there's a hope inside
Brighter than the fears in my mind
I keep looking for the blinding light
It's the hope that keeps me alive
Wake up, wake up
[Chorus]
[Outro]
The blinding light
Been waiting all my life
To take me higher and higher
The blinding light
You're the vision that gives me sight
Oh, the blinding light
Take me higher and higher
