Awakening

Hello. Hello.
Is there anyone out there
who can hear me now?
I'm scraped and I'm frayed
and I'm lost but I've made my own way through the day.
(So wake me up tonight)

The stars they shine they burn like fire
like a new desire to help to change the world.
And I'm after the one that burns the brightest.
(Are you listening?)

I know that I'm lost without the answers.
And I lied when I said that I won't be missing this.
So sound the alarm.
'Cause here I go with all I am.
Wake me up. And I've been here too long.

Let's play with matches and get ourselves wrapped up in the flames.
I've got a list of distractions that gives me satisfaction and keeps me sane.
(At times like these)
You're not here. It's unbalanced. I'm calloused. I'm a mess.
Ten seconds to lift off. So here's to this life and here's to the next.

I know that I'm lost without the answers.
And I lied when I said that I won't be missing this.
So sound the alarm.
'Cause here I go with all I am.
Wake me up. And I've been here too long.

I'm scraped and I'm frayed
and I'm lost but I've made my own way through the day.
(Wake me up tonight)
I need you to see what you've got to believe; what you mean to me.
I never really told you that...

I know that I'm lost without the answers.
And I lied when I said that I won't be missing this.
So sound the alarm.
'Cause here I go with all I am.
Wake me up. And I've been here too long.
(For too long)
