Wake Up
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I took a slip on a Gemini head trip too far
With all your tears and all my fears, my battle scars
I ran in circles for you right into the ground
I can't help but feel that I let you down
When I walked away from you
[Chorus x2]
I'm falling apart without you here
But it's the same way when you are near
'Till I wake up, wake up and walk away
Wake up, oh...
Tiny images of you still course through my veins
Pumps to my heart and that's where they remain
Well I'd pay the ransom for you if you'd stay around
I can't help but feel that I let you down, when
When I walked away from you
[Chorus x2]
Well it burns my lungs when I took a breath to say good-bye
'Cause I don't mind the pain sometimes
When I was yours and you were mine
Until I had to walk away from you
[Chorus x2]
And when you and I burn
When I walk away
(wake up, wake up and walk away)
And I walk away
(wake up)
Forever you and I burn
When I walk away
(wake up, wake up and walk away)
And I walk away oh...
(wake up)
