Wake Up in the Light

Chorus

Everybody sleeps in darkness
To wake up in the light.
No one’s ever gonna stay awake
If nothing turns out right.

So sleep for one more minute,
But don’t sleep for a day.
Don’t wanna miss your sunlight,
Your everlasting ray.

Verse 1

You sit inside your room and
Find your energy is gone.
You can’t begin to tell why
You feel everything is wrong.

You try to find a purpose
And try to quench your fear.
Your thoughts are overwhelming you
And falling with your tears.

Verse 2

If someone could console you,
You’d find someone right now.
You’d get someone to hold you,
But wouldn’t know just how.

You’d throw your arms wide open,
If only they could move.
Look longingly at someone if
You felt you wouldn’t lose.

Chorus

Everybody sleeps in darkness
To wake up in the light.
No one’s ever gonna stay awake
If nothing turns out right.

So sleep for one more minute,
But don’t sleep for a day.
Don’t wanna miss your sunlight,
Your everlasting ray.

Bridge

Stop and think it over.
(My life will never change.)
Stop and think it over.
(I’d lose more than I’d gain.)
Stop and think it over.
(My heart is going cold.)
Stop and think it over.
(This hurt is just too old.)

Gotta start believing.
(I don’t believe so well.)
Gotta start believing.
(There’s no one I can tell.)
Gotta start believing.
(I’ll give it one more try.)
Gotta start believing.
(My light will never die.)

Verse 3

There’s too much life to live for
And too much left to do.
Your friend’s and family need you,
Though you don’t feel it too.

The endless inner turmoil
Has lived in everyone.
Your hope and your salvation
Are rising with the sun.

Chorus x2

Everybody sleeps in darkness
To wake up in the light.
No one’s ever gonna stay awake
If nothing turns out right.

So sleep for one more minute,
But don’t sleep for a day.
Don’t wanna miss your sunlight,
Your everlasting ray.
