You wake up You wake up Paralyzed terrified in the dead of night You wake up You wake up Paralyzed terrified You can try if you'd like but it's not worth it Too many times I lied just to force it You believe in me But I'll never see Please don't waste your breath I've made peace with death 'Cause I know that I'll never be okay And finding God is such a goddamn cliche What do you see in me? With the weight down on your shoulders (You wake up) You wake up (You wake up) (Paralyzed terrified in the dead of night) Your blood's growing colder But I see the light in you And I know you'll make it through Though you feel you're born to lose Like a rhyme that's overused Thinkin' some flowers never bloom 'Cause I know just how you feel inside I know there's hope in the back of your mind I want you to see All that you can be I know you say that you'll never be okay But giving up is the goddamn cliche We're only getting older (So wake up) So wake up (Please wake up) (And realize you can find how to love your life) I know there's weight on your shoulders But it's time that you let go Of the hurt that you hold close It's time for you to choose I said it's time for you to choose To let the flowers bloom You reminded me that it's all worth it Now I can breathe in the air and not force it You believed in me And you helped me to see That maybe I'm in too deep But I'm ready to take the leap
