Wake Me Up

Featured Replies

(verse 1)

I've been trapped in this same scene,

I can't escape this frightning dream.

Everytime I try opening my eyes,

They continue tightning.

(verse 2)

I feel like I have been asleep for days,

I can't even feel the sun's warming rays.

All I see around me is this same scene.

Won't someone wake me from this dream.

(chorus)

Someone please come wake me up,

I don't know how much more I can take.

Every night my poor heart is in ache.

SOMEONE PLEASE COME WAKE ME UP!!

(verse 3)

Every night this scene enters my mind,

It is anything but kind.

Why am I cursed this way?

What can I do? What can I say?

(repeat chorus)

(verse 4)

This nightmare comtinues to grow,

It all started as something low.

And now it troubles me so,

Not being able to know ...

(repeat chorus)

(verse 5)

My thoughts continue to die

As my eyes continue to cry.

I continue to wonder why ...

"Why won't someone wake me up?"

(verse 6)

My mind is blank

All I see is black.

I'm giving up on all that.

My nightmare has consumed me.

No one can wake me up now.

So, looking at this...I could really picture this being a good hard rock song. Maybe Linkin Park.

Thanks for sharing was looking for it

There's also a new musical that's mostly rock feel. It's called next to normal. These lyrics remind me very much of the song from that called "You Don't Know". You can find it on youtube.

Very dark but I like yet. Yo maybe you could do two things, but it's only my idea. One is to cut out 'warming' in connection to the sun - adjectives to describe stuff can sometimes be awkward in songs.

The other thing is that you could let your imagination run wilder - I like 'thoughts continue to die', you need a little more unusual word pictures like that, just to make the words jump out and be memorable. Refer to people, the street, animals, whatever takes your fancy but give us more images, they are great.

thanks for sharing
