Awake Lyrics

Can't breathe
Hyperventilating
Look out
Fall and hit the ground
Pain leading
Will someone get me out?
Can't breathe
Hyperventilating

Wake up
Wake up

Feeling down
Head blown out and no more sound
Lights go out
Feeling down, your eyes blown out
Feeling down
Head blown out and no more sound
Lights go out
Feeling down, your eyes blown out

Wake up
Time to die
Wake up
Time to die
Wake up
Time to die
Wake up
Time to die

Manipulation and it's killing me
Communication and it's killing me
Reproducing and it's killing me
Clones for its misusing and it's killing me

Wake up
Time to die
Wake up
Time to die
Wake up
Time to die
Wake up
Time to die

We all have lost control
Lost control
Lost control
We all have lost control
Lost control
Lost control
We all have lost control
Lost control
Lost control
We all have lost control
Lost control

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up

Wake up (No control... reckoning)
Wake up (So depressed... emptiness)
Wake up (No control... reckoning)
Wake up (So depressed... emptiness)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
