WAKE UP

Make way for the new time
Can’t wait on the side lines
Making promises you don’t understand
To people who aren’t listening
No one is gonna tear my hand

A shadow that locks up hypnotized
From watching your ribcage fall and rise
But I’ll fade if you just avert your eyes
Away

I can’t look back and I can’t look away

I wake up great
I wake up fine
