Wake And Do The Same

(album: Soft Songs For The Quarantined Mind - 2021)

Prisoner deferred
Sulking eyes and breathless
Cover old expression and complaint
Screaming, "Girls, I'm hurt"
Nothing but a whisper
Buried in the memory of your name

And all they are doing
Take what once was great and make it shame
But I can see through it
If only you would wake and do the same

Stone is left unturned
Waiting for the ending
Nothing that we used to have remains
Stomach feels the burn
A new time for mending
We are all we have to cast the blame

And all they are doing
Take what once was great and make it shame
But I can see through it
If only you would wake and do the same

Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh-oh-oh-oh

And all they are doing
Take what once was great and make it shame
But I can see through it
If only you would wake and do the same
If only you would wake and do the same
If only you would wake and do the same
