Ornaments - Wake Up Lyrics




This is the part
Where I rip out my bleeding heart
Something has to change
This feels so strange
Never once compelled
To believe the stories that you tell
Half of them ain't true
All we want is the truth

This one's quite a piece of work
He can twist a rubber arm
Twist it hard behind a back
Promise he don't mean nobody harm
A swell guy we can get behind
A populist for every kind
Of me and you

We're wasted
Wake up!
Nothing seems to change
As far as I can tell
Take this and wake up
If you can't seem to change
I can't share your enthusiasm

Seize the day
Goes that old cliché
I can hardly keep myself contained
These are your thoughts on a deadline day
I can barely keep my head out of the vise
We're alive and insane

Then the mind starts to race
Your pulse starts to quicken
You got thick skin, kid
These are your thoughts on any given day
I can barely roll out of bed before one
Even twice
I'm on fire
Can anyone hear me?

You can lean on me any time
I'm taking pills for compassion fatigue
We're both stuck in the same race
It's what got us in this mess in the first place

We're wasted
Wake up!
Turn on that charm
You got it tattooed on your arm
Help me wake up
If I can't seem to change
I'll try not to kill your enthusiasm
