Wake Up
My heart is a flight risk
And every day is a battle
I'm holding it hostage
And tying the ends of the strings
So it can't unravel
We can't keep pretending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
And look at the captions
Every year it's a campaign
They're seeking reactions
And the echoes of sheep
Tend to drive us to our graves
We can't keep pretending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
We can't keep defending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
I've been working hard just like my father did
Scraping the skin from my knuckles
Up at dawn home at dark to struggle
Just to struggle
I've been fixing cars just like my father did
Adding notches for the buckle
Working hard just to starve and struggle
To struggle
We can't keep pretending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
We can't keep defending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
And every day is a battle
I'm holding it hostage
And tying the ends of the strings
So it can't unravel
We can't keep pretending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
And look at the captions
Every year it's a campaign
They're seeking reactions
And the echoes of sheep
Tend to drive us to our graves
We can't keep pretending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
We can't keep defending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
I've been working hard just like my father did
Scraping the skin from my knuckles
Up at dawn home at dark to struggle
Just to struggle
I've been fixing cars just like my father did
Adding notches for the buckle
Working hard just to starve and struggle
To struggle
We can't keep pretending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
We can't keep defending
We've been sleeping
So wake up wake up
