Wake Up (live) Lyrics

Words & Music by Allison Crowe

I have watched you for years now
And I have seen you seen slowly dying
I think that you gave up everything for a while
I think that you stopped trying
Now you're saying that I'm too good for you
When you know I'm not
But I can tell you that you're hanging yourself here
Because I'm all you've got

But, honestly
painfully
What do you want from me?

Wake up
Do I have to
Slap you in the face?
Pour cold water on you
Just to get through
Your kingdom is becoming a disgrace
I always tried to help you
You wouldn't let me come near
I could see that you were suffering
But you always hid your fear

And it's cold now
As you, you go to war
You can go to Hell
'cause I won't, I won't be here anymore

Honestly
And disdainfully
What do you
Want from me?
Wake up
Do I have to
Slap you in the face?
Pour cold water on you
Just to get through
Your kingdom is becoming a disgrace

Wake up
Do I have to
Slap you in the face?
Pour cold water on you
Just to get through
Your kingdom is becoming a disgrace

A disgrace
