Underoath – Wake Me lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everyday is numb
Oh I hold my tongue
Nothing's gonna bring me hope, no
I'm hanging on
Tunnel with the lights turned off
Oh, I know you're near
Or 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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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'll go through hell?
Is this the reason that I dream it all away?
Withdrawl and medicate
It's better to sleep
Than to face it awake

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Wake me
Give me a reason, reason
Wake me
Give me a reason
