Let It Be (Wake Up)

Wake up, it's time to open up your windows
Let the light shine through from the twilight view
Save up every penny that you made from
Selling shares of you when they asked you to
They sang the sweetest of love songs
They held your feet off the ground
They set the greatest of fires
Then left you deaf to the sound
Wake up, the sun is setting and you've missed out
On the light it's left behind

But all you say is
Let it be, let it be, let it be
Oh why can't you just
Let it be, let it be, let it be
Don't you see I don't
Wanna leave, wanna leave, wanna leave
Won't you let me sleep

Wake up, you've been drinking of a poison
With the taste of god in the noble rot
Make up with your brothers and your sisters
From the wars you've fought, see the scars they've wrought
I offer you pain and struggle
I offer blood, sweat, and tears
I know it's hardest to follow
I know I don't feel your fear
Wake up, the bed you lay in is slowly breaking
From the weight it's holding up

I hear you saying
Let it be, let it be, let it be
Oh why can't you just
Let it be, let it be, let it be
Don't you see I don't
Wanna leave, wanna leave, wanna leave
Won't you let me sleep

Won't you please let it be, I'm afraid of the dark
Those voices deep inside laugh at me from far behind
You won't be there for me, I'm not seeing what you see
There's no other way to be, so let it be, so let it be
Don't make me wake up, there's a comfort in this reverie
I don't wanna lose, I refuse, I refuse
I won't wake up, close the curtains on my window
There's no light for us to find

Oh please don't tell me
Let it be, let it be, let it be
You know I can't just
Let it be, let it be, let it be
Come with me 'cause I
Wanna leave, wanna leave, wanna leave
Don't go back to sleep
