Intro (Female – ghostly, extended)

Ooohhh…

Aaahhh-ahhh…

I’m still bre-e-e-eathing…

Verse 1 (Female – soft, fragile)

I stitched my heart with shaking hands

Every scar still understands

I learned the cost of letting go

Now I feel it… slo-o-o-ow

I don’t run into the light anymore

I knock twice at every door

Every feeling asks for war

Before it to-o-ouches my core

Pre-Chorus (Female – stretched, building)

I used to fall without a sound

Now I hear my fear too lo-o-oud

Chorus (Female – BIG, melodic, extended)

Wake me u-u-u-up

But don’t tear my ski-i-in

I’ve been bu-u-urned

Before I let you in

Wake me u-u-u-up

I still fe-e-e-el

But I think too mu-u-uch

Before what’s real

Post-Chorus (Female – vocalizing)

Ooohhh-ohhh…

Aaahhh…

I’m not numb… I’m a-wa-a-are…

Verse 2 (Female – stronger, controlled)

Love feels different on my tongue

Every truth weighs more than one

I don’t bleed like I did before

But it still hurts… ju-u-ust as raw

I built a wall beneath my skin

Not to hide, but to survive within

If you want in, don’t rush my breath

I’ve been dancing close to de-e-eath

Chorus (Female – fuller)

Wake me u-u-u-up

I won’t break a-ga-a-ain

I’ve grown la-a-ayers

Over pain

Wake me u-u-u-up

I still cry-i-i-i

But my heart thinks fi-i-irst

Before it tries

Screamo / Gutural Bridge (Male – raw, emotional, explosive)

I GAVE TOO MUCH

I LOST MYSELF

I BLED FOR LOVE

NOW I BITE BACK

TRUST IS A KNIFE

I HOLD IT TIGHT

ONE MORE CUT

AND I WON’T SURVIVE

YOU CALL IT FEAR

I CALL IT SKIN

I WON’T LET YOU

GET IN

Breakdown (Female – whisper to cry, extended)

Ooohhh…

This skin saved my li-i-i-ife…

Final Chorus (Both – MAX impact)

Wake me u-u-u-up

I’m alive, but gua-a-arded

Every hea-a-art

That I started

Wake me u-u-u-up

I still lo-o-ove

But my god…

Is that too mu-u-uch?

Outro (Female – fading, haunting)

Ooohhh…

I still feel…

But I think…

I think too mu-u-uch…
