Wake Me Lyrics

It used to be kind of fun
but now it is not
And ohh
I'm tired

I used to once have the world
but now I do not
And ohh
I'm tired, so tired
And if I run away
won't you chase me up
And if I fall asleep
won't you wake me up
won't you pull my cuff

Now freedom comes at a cost
that I don't want to pay
And ohh
I'm tired

I know I said I would leave
but I'm still here today
And ohh
I'm tired, so tired
And if I run away
won't you chase me up
And if I fall asleep
won't you wake me up
won't you pull my cuff

And if I fall asleep
won't you wake me up
won't you pull my cuff

Well I've got some plans
that you might just still want to change
And ohh
I'm tired

Well I've got some friends
that you might just still think are strange
And ohh
I'm tired, so tired
And if I run away
won't you chase me up
And if I fall asleep
won't you wake me up
won't you pull my cuff

And if I run away
won't you chase me up
And if I...

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.

This song is posted under the wrong artist - the ALBUM is "Fluke" and the artist is "Rusty" - great song though!
