Wake Up Lyrics

If you have the answers to all of my questions
Why are you here?
Turn around, face me now
I promise you they'll let you in

I don't mean to make you so upset
But the air is so thin and I'm losing sleep

Blackened and unrested
Replace your armour to make this stand

Bring me round to let me down
Take this for ever so I can sleep quiet
I'll wait around to let you in
What has begun

I don't mean to make you so upset
But the air is so thin and I'm losing sleep

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up (x3)

Wake up
Wake up

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up (x4)

You laid me down to sleep

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.

the album is a concept album about the world falling apart then being re-built into something better. This is the last song on the album and is about waking up in "the new world" the "wake up" parts at the end are sung by about 20 of fightstars friends. The last lyric on the album is "you lay me down TO SLEEP" the 1st song on the album is called "to sleep" nice touch i thought.

I remember watching blade runner and the words 'wake up' were key dialogue in one of the scenes, i know fightstar reference this film in other songs, and it kinda makes sense in this light.
