Once You Wake Up Lyrics

And what about the times

Now I'm grabbing out at breaking glass

An attempt to find a memory

That makes it seem glorious or at least okay

But all I have is me

In a razor caught off guard as you brush by

The alarm wakes me out of bed

And the dream I was just having simply fades away

And blindly do I see

At the sunlight I am freezing

And as I start to come around, I want to fall back to the ground

Roll over and make sense again

But it's too late I am awake

And it's sensation, I can't fake as I try my best to pretend

But once you wake up

You just can't fall back asleep anymore

I know it isn't fair

But once you're aware

You can back track all you want

You can mourn for what's gone

But you're up either way

You better deal with your day

I remember I was tired

In fact I still have some sleep in my eyes

So I got all warm and safe and numb

Figured I'd lie down and rest a while

Next thing came the morning

And you're shaking me and telling me to rise

And I would tell you anything

To stall and make you think or smile or cry

You see all I need is you

And then I start to understand what love does

Now there's so much that I can give

And I finally want to live

You know before I just didn't really ever care

And I'll do more than hold on

I want to celebrate the dawn

I don't ever want to go back to sleep I swear

But once you wake up

You can't just fall back to sleep anymore

I know it isn't fair

But once you're aware

You can backtrack all you want

You can mourn for what's gone

But you're up either way

You better deal with your day
