Wake up
Wake up
Wake up

Your life has stalled somewhere
And you just sit and stare
And as each day (each day) runs away (runs away)
Children scream as you lay waiting

They must think,
“What is worse: not being loved
Or not loving anything at all?”

Wake up
Wake up
I hope you ignite what thrives inside
Break through
You’ve got to find a way to feel alive, alive again

Or would you rather watch the world
From you windowsill
Like the animal you became?
Or maybe tear your nails from your cuticles
As the devil praises your name?

Remember: no one will ever ask how young you are
So please
Wake up and find someway to find yourself

I hope you ignite what thrives inside
Break through
You’ve got to find a way to feel alive, alive again

I hope you ignite what thrives inside
Break through
You’ve got to find a way to feel alive, alive again

Wake up
