I've been staring at the hour glass

Wasting away as the hours pass

Waiting (wake me up)

Wake me up

And I've been walking this same sad road

Over and over

My feet drag on as I can feel myself growing weary

And as I come to this fork in the road

I don't know which way to go

Waiting for someone to tell me that I'll be okay

Wake me up

Wake me up

This can't be real

There's no way that this could be my life

When I've worked so hard

When I gave you my everything

Everything

Waiting for someone to tell me that I'll be okay

Wake me up

Wake me up

I won't let you take all that's left in me

Let me be

Give me back my life

Let me be, let me be

Give me back my life

Waiting for someone to tell me that I'll be okay

Wake me up

Wake me up
