Wake Up

No smiles in the morning, you had a bad night
It all started in the afternoon around quarter past two
Mmm, gettin' bruises in the bedroom
And you often wonder why, since nobody's sleeping by your side
It can't all just be a bad dream, but some kind of premonition made out
Made of terrible decisions

Nothing's going right and you wonder why
Wonder what it's like on the other side, baby
Is it even worth it even if you tried
No one's there to hear you despite how loud you cry

But you do it to yourself
Yeah, you do it how you wanna
I can't even tell
What the hell I'm even singing for

You know, you know, you know, you know
You know, you know, you know I can't explain
My memory's selective, quite neglected other loopholes in my brain
Ooh, it's been a while, could you lift me up?
Yeah, I got my jam on
If the crescendo is the remedy
But I forget the melody, no

Nothing's going right and you wonder why (wonder why)
Wonder what it's like on the other side, baby (other side)
Is it even worth it even if you tried (if you tried)
No one's there to hear you despite how loud you cry

But you do it to yourself
Yeah, you do it how you wanna
I can't even tell
What the hell I'm even singing for

Often times you cried, irritable
And you wonder why you're so down
Late at night you wonder in your room
Looking for a sense of control
On and on you slowly lose your mind
You're walking on a tightrope
You're running out of time

Nothing's going right and you wonder why (wonder why)
Wonder what it's like on the other side, baby (other side)
Is it even worth it even if you tried (if you tried)
No one's there to hear you despite how loud you cry

But you do it to yourself
Yeah, you do it how you wanna
I can't even tell
Or know what I'm really singing for

But you do it to yourself
Yeah, you do it how you wanna
I can't even tell
What the hell I'm even singing for, woah
