Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I just drive
Till the night turns off my mind
I'm passing cars, and crowded bars
Never know until I go too far
[Verse 2]
Confusing faith and fear
Paint a smile from ear to ear
'Cause if I blink, I start to think
I feel nothing, I feel everything
[PreChorus]
I try my best to turn down the noise
And I tell myself that boys will be boys
It's getting harder to breathe
So baby, put me to sleep
Till it gets better
[Chorus]
So wake me up when it's over
It's over
When it's over
Tell me it was all just a dream
And wake me up when it's over
It's over
When it's over
Tell me it was all just a dream
And I'll believe it
[Verse 3]
Keep me in the dark
Then fast forward to the part
With endless nights and neon lights
I'll be beautiful and starry-eyed
[PreChorus]
I try my best to turn down the noise
And I tell myself that boys will be boys
It's getting harder to breathe
So, baby, put me to sleep
Till it gets better
[Chorus]
So wake me up when it's over
It's over
When it's over
Tell me it was all just a dream
And wake me up when it's over
It's over
When it's over
Tell me it was all just a dream
And I'll believe it
[Bridge]
Sometimes I just drive
When I can't turn off my mind
I don't know where
I'll meet you there
Someday
[Chorus]
So wake me up when it's over
It's over
When it's over
Tell me it was all just a dream
And wake me up when it's over
It's over
When it's over
Tell me it was all just a dream
And I'll believe it
