Wake Up

(album: Kindest Regards - 2013)

I ain't gonna lie these dim lights and this cheap wine got me thinking about you
When I can't sleep and I can't eat
I can't help but think about you
Want some real shit, this is real shit
And I spit that so y'all feel this
And I'm reeled in and my heart replaced my dick so fuck my feelings
Damn, here we go some song about a girl, right?
Nah just a song about some shit that changed my whole life
Let me take you back to those cold nights when my heart was broken in pieces
But I'll take the pain and I'll take the hurt cuz that shit happens for a reason
You wore that pink shirt and those white shorts
Sitting up on that white porch
In a different day, in a different time I might ride up in my white horse
But I'm colder now cuz I've been hurt
Heart ripped out, dragged through dirt
And I wouldn't let you in
I should've realized that you weren't her
Now I'm stuck in this world I dug
Went from hugs to being in love, my stubborn ass just wouldn't budge
So I left you second guessing, guessing about my feelings
Now I'm stuck here writing songs and all these songs are just for healing me

But I know tonight we got tonight
And this our chance to make it right
Now I think it's time for us to wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up
See we're too busy getting wasted
Tears are all we're tasting
I think its time for me and you to face it
Girl we need to wake up
And grow up, to save us
Because these feelings can't be made up

Damn with a smile like that, see girl you could light up a whole room
And we started out as friends and only friends cuz it was too soon
For me to let you in and see if we were only friends
Then I wouldn't have to commit and then no hearts get broken again
Right? Wrong. You see our feeling got involved
No commitment was my call even though I didn't mean it at all
Went from texting everyday til my fingers weak
To talking on the phone til we fall asleep
To you skipping class to be with me
To being introduced to your family
Crazy how time flew
I needed that spark, think I found it in you
I'm sorry for everything I didn't do
Everything just happened so out of the blue
Then I got that call from you, my heart broke in two
Because I thought I fucking lost you to some other dude

But I know tonight we got tonight
And this our chance to make it right
Now I think it's time for us to wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up
See we're too busy getting wasted
Tears are all we're tasting
I think its time for me and you to face it
Girl we need to wake up
And grow up, to save us
Because these feelings can't be made up

I think I cried for like three days straight
I felt hurt, sick, fucked over, and betrayed
Wondering why you want him instead of me
I think I died inside that night
What the fuck do I say
But wait she said 'I thought there were no strings attached'
Remember Mark no strings attached is what you said we had
Damn, I guess I didn't think of that
Now we're on the fucking verge of loosing everything we had
And I don't want you to be the one that got away
So I tell you everything sit back and wait
So you know how I feel if you walk away
You were there when I got this beat that day
I don't know where you'll be when you hear this
I just hope you know it's real
That you'll sit back and you'll feel this

But I know tonight we got tonight
And this our chance to make it right
Now I think it's time for us to wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up
See we're too busy getting wasted
Tears are all we're tasting
I think its time for me and you to face it
Girl we need to wake up
And grow up, to save us
Because these feelings can't be made up

But I know tonight we got tonight
And this our chance to make it right
Now I think it's time for us to wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up
See we're too busy getting wasted
Tears are all we're tasting
I think its time for me and you to face it
Girl we need to wake up
And grow up, to save us
Because these feelings can't be made up
