乡村音乐:I Need To Wake Up

I Need To Wake Up 79届奥斯卡最佳电影歌曲
演唱者：Melissa Etheridge

一部环保主义电影的插曲，一个女歌手沙哑嗓音的呼唤也能有如此的震撼感觉：漠视很久的我们该清醒，该行动了，我们并不孤单，去倾听那并不舒服的真相……

我该醒来》是美国电影《难以忽视的真相》（An Inconvenient¹ Truth）片尾曲，2007年2月26日揭晓的第79届奥斯卡最佳电影歌曲获奖金曲。

英文歌词
Have I been sleeping? I've been so still afraid of crumbling²
Have I been careless? Dismissing all the distant rumblings
Take me where I am supposed to be to comprehend³ the things that I can't see

'Cause I need to move. I need to wake up
I need to change. I need to shake up
I need to speak out. Something is got to break up
I've been asleep and I need to wake up now

And as a child I danced like it was 1999. My dreams were wild
But the promise of this new world would be mine
Now I am throwing off the carelessness of youth
To listen to an inconvenient truth

Well I need to move. I need to wake up
I need to change. I need to shake up
I need to speak out. Something is got to break up
I've been asleep and I need to wake up now

I am not an island. I am not alone
I am my intentions trapped here in this flesh and bone

And I need to move. I need to wake up
I need to change. I need to shake up
I need to speak out. Something is got to break up
I've been asleep and I need to wake up now
