lyrics

You've been sitting on my shoulder for a while
You've been telling me lies.
Oh and you, you've been talking
and I never liked you tone
Oh and I've been swallowing your lines.
You've been running out of time

There's a hurricane within me
There's a force you can't define
And I challenge you come get me

Sleeping Giant I'm a force you shouldn't wake
and you've been stealing treasure that you really
shouldn't take.
No I never want to go back there
Cos I'm a sleeping giant and I've come alive again.

No one even noticed I'd been standing all this time.
Staring out the window at a world that should be mine
Oh you tricked me into thinking
That my time had been and gone
Well I'm standing here to tell you now
My friend you have been wrong

There's a hurricane within me
There's a force you can't define
And I challenge you come get me

Sleeping Giant I'm a force you shouldn't wake
and you've been stealing treasure that you really
shouldn't take.
No I never want to go back there
Cos I'm a sleeping giant and I've come alive again.
