Lyrics Underoath – Wake Me (Acoustic)
Text:
Everyday is numb
Oh I hold my tongue
Nothing’s gonna bring me hope, no
I’m hanging on
Oh, I know you’re near
Drawing me like a moth no
I’m closer to your flame
It’s harder to explain
It’s easier to sleep
Than to face it awake
Open up my eyes and show me salvation
Wake this body up
‘Cause I’m tired of sleepin’
Oh and there’s no heartbeat
Something’s wrong with me
Help, please
I can barely breathe
Wake me
Give me a reason, reason
Inside these walls oh I’m safe and sound
You will never see me fall no
Or hit the ground
Maybe this is just a cry for help
Maybe I should just forgive myself
Is this the reason that I go through hell?
Is this the reason that I dream it all away?
Withdrawal and medicate
It’s easier to sleep
Than to face it awake
Open up my eyes and show me salvation
Wake this body up
‘Cause I’m tired of sleepin’
Oh and there’s no heartbeat
Something’s wrong with me
Help, please
I can barely breathe
Wake me
Give me a reason, reason
I know when the lights go out
No one will find me
Behind the darkest cloud
I run for safety
I know if I let you in
I might be free again
I wish that I could be like you
Open up my eyes and show me salvation
Wake this body up
‘Cause I’m tired of sleepin’
Oh and there’s no heartbeat
Something’s wrong with me
Help, please
I can barely breathe
Wake me
Give me a reason, reason
Reason
Reason
