Group Project - WAKE UP

Long nights, no sleep
The sun glares through your window and the birds all start to speak
Might as well get up and start your day
Cause I've heard sleep is for the weak, you can dream while you're awake.
You're a big kid now, no need for lullabies
But sometimes it's just so damn hard to close those eyes.

Maybe you've been overthinking
Maybe you've been overdrinking
Maybe you just got caught up watching your favorite Netflix show
Maybe your whole ship in sinking
Trying to sleep but you're just blinking
Maybe you're scared when you'll wake up you'll have no place to go

But I can show you the ropes my dear
I can trade you all my hope for all your fear
Your hand fits in mine just like a glove
And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up

Long days, no action
Makes you look back on all the times saying oh my god what happened?
Can we turn back the small hand on the clock
Cause you could use a little jet lag with a whisky on the rocks
You're a big kid now, no need for lullabies
But sometimes it's just so damn hard to close those eyes.

Maybe you've been overthinking
Maybe you've been overdrinking
Maybe you just got caught up watching your favorite Netflix show
Maybe your whole ship in sinking
Trying to sleep but you're just blinking
Maybe you're scared when you'll wake up you'll have no place to go

But I can show you the ropes my dear
I can trade you all my hope for all your fear
Your hand fits in mine just like a glove
And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up

When you wake up
And I wish that I could that I still be there.

Mirror mirror on the wall
I don't think I'm my best at all
I'm losing my colorful complexion
Somebody give me a call
Need to wake up before I fall
And maybe just a little direction

But I can show you the ropes my dear
I can trade you all my hope for all your fear
Your hand fits in mine just like a glove
And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up

I can show you the ropes my dear
I can trade you all my hope for all your fear
Your hand fits in mine just like a glove
And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up

When you wake up!
And I wish that I could still be there
To hold you when you wake up

When you wake up!
And I wish that I could still be there
To hold you when you wake up
