Wake
up !
Wake
up !
Wake
up, they are all shouting at me
My
friends here, my friends there
My
family
Can’t
you see what we see?
The
misery?
The
misery you are in
Held
deep within yourself
Wake
up
Wake
up
I
hear them faintly
I
am still within my fantasy
Wake
up
Wake
up
We
are here to help you
To
hold you
To
hug you
To
give you words of encouragement
I
can hear them through my tears
I
can see them faintly through my confusion
Wake
up
Wake
up
You
are lost within- lost with he/she
We
want you to see
We
want you to seek your own identity
I
am trying I shout back
Just
let me be
It
is not like I can set the alarm clock
and
bounce back
so
quickly
Wait
for me I say
I
am coming
I
am waking up
Wake
up
Wake
up
I
am trying so hard
To
get out of this fantasy which is really a nightmare
That
I allowed myself to be pulled into
I
want to wake up
I
want to see
Don’t
leave me I shout
Be
there for me
Wake
up
Wake
up
Come
to the dawn of the shining light
To
see what is waiting for you
I
want so bad to wake up
I
want the shining light they call life
I
want a new journey
But
it is hard for me
Wake
up
Wake
up they say
Open
your eyes
Open
your heart
Find
your own identity
Oh
how bad I want that
To
know who I am
What
I truly want in life
I
am coming I say
Slowly
but surely
I
will be there
Be
there with you all
My
friends and family
Wake
up
Wake
up
They
say again
I
am
I
am coming to the light
To
be with myself
To
enjoy each waking moment
Instead
of waking to drudgery
I
want to wake to be happy
I
will be there
Just
don’t give up
Don’t
worry
We
will wait patiently
We
will be there
All
the steps of the way
Through
the fog
Through
the clouds
Until
you finally
Wake
up
And
see for yourself
What
great things life has to offer you
On
your journey
