Lyrics

Wake Up

[Verse 1]

It's lonely at the top, so I'm told

But the bottom of the barrel

Is a place for me to grow old

I'm searching for who took away my soul

The blood within me's black and blue

And it was all for you

All for you (Woah)

[Chorus]

So captivate me one more time

Show me how I'm divine

No one's kept me more blind

But maybe I'll wake up

So captivate me one more time

Show me how I'm divine

No one's kept me more blind

But maybe I'll wake up

So captivate me one more time

Show me how I'm divine

No one's kept me more blind

But maybe I'll wake up this time

[Drop]

Maybe I'll wake up this time

Maybe I'll wake up

[Bridge]

So captivate me one more time

Show me how I'm divine

No one's kept me more blind

But maybe I'll wake up this time

[Drop]

Maybe I'll wake up this time

[Verse 2]

It's lonely at the top, so I'm told

But the greatest of all treasures

Aren't the ones of jewels and gold

One of your many secrets

That you failed to give me

Is how I live a lie

And it was all for you

All for you (Woah)

[Chorus]

So captivate me one more time

Show me how I'm divine

No one's kept me more blind

But maybe I'll wake up

So captivate me one more time

Show me how I'm divine

No one's kept me more blind

But maybe I'll wake up

So captivate me one more time

Show me how I'm divine

No one's kept me more blind

But maybe I'll wake up this time

[Drop]

[Outro]

Maybe I'll wake up this time

Up this time, up this time, up this time, up this time, time
