Wake me up, shout it loud
Way to be the better person, well, I won’t stop until it hurts me
Give it time, yeah
Maybe I’ll open up my eyes; should I
Keep this bliss, this ignorance?
It’s gotten me this far, I’m not gonna tear it all apart
I’ve given it my all, so
I’m standing tall
And there’s no stopping, til I see my name in shining lights
Forgive me, if I seem, like I’m not putting up a fight
Cuz not only would I sacrifice everything I got
Wake me up, when this little turns into a lot
Say my name, play this game
It’s time to grow up, no, not til I know
I’m given all control
And I can let it go

The lights are off except a spotlight
It shows your every single move
You think you’re everybody’s kryptonite
The words, they never seem to wound
Seems your disguise is so unbreakable
Cheap enough to see the real you in a better light
Regardless, you’re far less so unobtainable
You’ll dance the floor and sneak into my mind
And now I’m giving it my all, can you feel the heat?
You make me believe, in a world so incomplete
Am I just setting up the fall? Are you what I need?
Please make me believe
Oh, I couldn’t keep my feelings down
My brain impaired by the lights and sound
And just to keep a little bit of competition now
My head’s on a swivel spinning round and round
Oh, you know there could’ve been more to this scene
I’ll light this fire with some kerosene
Keep it burning can you feel the heat?
It’s time to move my feet, hey, I’m moving, I’m moving, I’m moving!

Here I Am

I can be something that you’ve never seen, I can be brand new
I can share my whole world with you
I can be the voice you hear when the sky ain't blue
And if you call on me, I’ll be there for you
Well I’m not sorry that I just can’t be perfect, that promise ain’t worth it, please
I’m gonna stand here with my two feet planted in the middle of nowhere
It’s a feeling that’ll never leave, I know that I wear my heart on my sleeve
Take it or leave it, I’m not changing anything for no one
So don’t settle down, and don’t think about, what’s happening now, I won’t let you drown
And feel the groove move your feet, until you believe
Without a doubt, you’re loving this sound, you can’t get it out, you feel it all around
Thinking this will only be the only me you’ll ever see, I feel it in my bones that this is really where I need to be
I can't say that I ever been perfect
I'm not the same as you knew me back then
But I guess you could say I got the same problems
Well, here I am, oh, here I am
I can be a distraction from the world outside
You won't need to be alone tonight
I can wait another thousand nights
You might fall in love another time

Hold me, kiss me, you’re underneath a warning sign
Treat me, judge me, whatever you want is fine
I’ll do my best to crawl back, you’ll keep my heart in mind
Feel me, heal me, we don’t gotta make a sound
Thrill me, kill me, all I want is you right now
You came in at the worst time, didn’t think I’d need you around
Let the feeling sink in
I’m not giving up until I win
Well, it’s your spell I’m under
You fill my world with color
But I know it’s my heart, and I know it’s my mind
You just stick in it, I swear I’m alright
It’s not over, over, but I know it’s true
You won’t let me forget you again
Call me, meet me, halfway on a hallowed ground
Quell me, tell me, you don’t feel like looking down
I jump into the water, you fill my lungs until I drown
Try me, grant me, all the strength I need to fight
Still me, kill me, even if I treat you right
You wash me in your sunshine, but only until day turns to night
Just enough to begin
No time for what coulda been
Well, it’s your spell I’m under
You fill my world with color
But I know it’s my heart, and I know it’s my mind
You just stick in it, I swear I’m alright
It’s not over, over, but I know it’s true
You won’t let me forget you again
Bait until you bit, oh, tell me how could I forget the way that you look at me?
Looking for a sign, come on, make your mind up, and tell me everything will be alright, just lie
Love me, find me, I’m underneath a warning sign
Want me, fool me, but the way I am is fine
I wouldn’t change the things I’ve done, no, not this state of mind
Feel me, heal me, we don’t gotta make a sound
Will me, kill me, fill my lungs until I drown
I need to let you know, my love, I’m not looking down!

Tell Me Something

It’s been a while since we said this isn’t right
But I thought I’d need you here
Suffocated, now just let me live my life
So tell me what you’re thinking, tell me what you’re thinking
Baby, I just gotta know
If you really love me, then you’re gonna have to let me go
I may be wrong, but right now I refuse to live a lie
Selfish, conceited, you needed to open up your eyes
Oh, with or without you, I’m movin on, I’m gonna live my life
So tell me I’m mistaken, oh please, tell me something
Baby, I just gotta know
If you really love me, then you’re gonna have to let me go
And baby, when I really needed you, you couldn’t be there
And when I needed you to face the truth, you couldn’t see it
And now I really don’t know what to do, so I guess I’m leaving you
So what you gonna say now, huh?
