Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wake me up!
Wake me up!
[Verse 2]
I'm walking through a dream
I'm walking through the finest place I've ever seen
Hey, man! Won't you wake me up?
Said hey, man! Won't you wake me up?
[Verse 3]
I'm walking through the fire
Defiant on the wire, burning up my desire
Hey, man! Won't you come, come, give me a gun?
Help me blow the lights right out of the sun
[Verse 4]
So won't you tell me if I'm dreaming? (Oh no)
I need to know just where I stand (Oh no)
But it turns out my hands are useless (Oh no)
But maybe I'm a better man (Oh no)
[Verse 5]
Said wake mе up!
Said wake mе up!
Said wake mе up!
[Verse 6]
I'm dancing on the screens
I'm dancing in the mountains where I've always been
Hey, man! Won't you wake me up?
Said hey, man! Won't you wake me up?
[Verse 7]
I'm kicking down the doors
I'm climbing up the walls of the house that's yours
Hey, man! Won't you come, come, give me a gun?
Help me blow the lights right out of the sun
[Verse 8]
So won't you tell me if I'm dreaming? (Oh no)
I need to know just where I stand (Oh no)
But it turns out my hands are useless (Oh no)
But maybe I'm a better man (Oh no)
[Verse 9]
Said wake mе up!
Said wake mе up!
Said wake mе up!
[Verse 10]
We're dancing on the serpents
I'm dancing on the coals
Deny your old expression
You deny the things you know
I'm living through the ages
I'm dancing on the tiles
Admit to any handshake
Believe a Duchenne smile
[Verse 11]
I'm burning all my bridges
I'm pulling up the ropes
Deleting all the codes
No, I'm not that man you know
You walk into a trap
Then you walk into your youth
You're living all that life
With a pair of dusty boots
[Verse 12]
So won't you tell me if I'm dreaming? (Oh no)
I need to know just where I stand (Oh no)
But it turns out my hands are useless (Oh no)
But maybe I'm a better man (Oh no)
[Verse 13]
So won't you tell me if I'm dreaming? (Oh no) (Said wake mе up!)
I need to know just where I stand (Oh no) (Said wake mе up!)
But it turns out my hands are useless (Oh no) (Said wake mе up!)
But maybe I'm a better man (Oh no)
[Verse 14]
So won't you tell me if I'm dreaming? (Oh no) (Said wake mе up!)
I need to know just where I stand (Oh no) (Said wake mе up!)
But it turns out my hands are useless (Oh no) (Said wake mе up!)
But maybe I'm a better man (Oh no)
[Verse 15]
Said wake mе up! (Oh no)
Said wake mе up! (Oh no)
Said wake mе up! (Oh no)
(Oh no)
