lyrics

One day I'll wake up
With long hair, and make up
My mind, maybe go outside again
Turn up the blast beats
Commit to the last, sweet reminder
Of my inner child again

Three times denied, this
Divine misalignment
Survives, like a song without an end
And free time's a lie, yet
The lie gets me by
Tonight, sitting down to try again
Wasting the daylight
Alone on a summer night
I write, maybe get things right again
But God knows it's never right
The clock strikes at midnight
Apologize, maybe say "I tried" again

And one day I'll wake up
With short hair, to shake it up
A new start, a whole new life again
The one thing I can control
While going down this rabbit hole
At least I'm not afraid to cry again

But I don't feel alive
I don't feel alive
I don't feel alive
I don't feel alive
I don't feel alive
I don't feel alive
Don't wanna die
But I don't feel alive

And one day I'll wake up
With long hair, and make up
My mind, maybe go outside again
But I can't remember why
It feels like a waste of time
Apologize, just stay inside again

And one day I'll wake up
With heavy eyes, and take up
My time, try to feel alive again
Try to play my favourite song
But it all just feels so wrong
Worth a try, but desensitized again
And one day I feel like
I'm alright, I'm just fine
Another lie, I can feel it call again
Fourth time's the charm
Disincarnate, disarm and
Decide that it's time to take revenge

'Cause one day I'll wake up
And no one will give a fuck that I tried
So I guess that'll be the end
Forget the sins of yesterday
Close my eyes and float away
Maybe I'll come back one day
Until then, I can only pray
That one day I'll wake up
