The Awakening
Red light, that never went green, but just amber
Apathy, mistrust or anger
Could never keep up with your wants
The rules of your game
Was I being too tame
Or acting just lame
Now I wonder
Why did I bother to chase you
Why did I seek to embrace you
I've found someone better, replaced you
She just outpaced you
You had your chance
Too young, maybe I should have known better
I wish now I never had met ya
I wasted too much of my life
Playing in your game
It really is a shame
I went through all that strain
Just to wonder
Why did I bother to chase you
Why did I seek to embrace you
I've found someone better, replaced you
She just outpaced you
You had your chance
Old crush, I wanted you once but now screw it
My heart was out there but you blew it
You finally warmed up but too late
Time pushes on
And people move on
Opportunity's gone
You were my blunder
I saw through you, finally woke up
I can't even say that we broke up
Feel nothing for you, I'm not choked up
My new life showed up
Gave me a chance
Gave me a chance
And now we're making plans
This is the awakening (reality kicks in)
This is the shape I'm in (emotional fixing)
I finally wised up (and about time too)
I finally woke up (and saw through you)
I woke up and moved on
Apathy, mistrust or anger
Could never keep up with your wants
The rules of your game
Was I being too tame
Or acting just lame
Now I wonder
Why did I bother to chase you
Why did I seek to embrace you
I've found someone better, replaced you
She just outpaced you
You had your chance
Too young, maybe I should have known better
I wish now I never had met ya
I wasted too much of my life
Playing in your game
It really is a shame
I went through all that strain
Just to wonder
Why did I bother to chase you
Why did I seek to embrace you
I've found someone better, replaced you
She just outpaced you
You had your chance
Old crush, I wanted you once but now screw it
My heart was out there but you blew it
You finally warmed up but too late
Time pushes on
And people move on
Opportunity's gone
You were my blunder
I saw through you, finally woke up
I can't even say that we broke up
Feel nothing for you, I'm not choked up
My new life showed up
Gave me a chance
Gave me a chance
And now we're making plans
This is the awakening (reality kicks in)
This is the shape I'm in (emotional fixing)
I finally wised up (and about time too)
I finally woke up (and saw through you)
I woke up and moved on
