Wake Me - Vanishing Point

My white flag is stained red with blood

From attempts to surrender

Your best bet is to turn and walk away

Broken legs, I will do my best

To stand and not falter

Enemies charge with weapons drawn

Right in front of me

Fall on my face

Open my eyes, I’m staring at the ceiling

The ceiling fan looks down at me in disbelief

How could you have been so blind?

Why do you let your guard down every time?

Take my hand, walk with me tonight

And help to remember

Times we shared back when we were strong

Memories of that empty beach in early September

When I had all I’d ever need

Right in front of me

Fall on my face

Open my eyes, I’m staring at the ceiling

The ceiling fan looks down at me in disbelief

How could you have been so blind?

Why do you let your guard down every time?

Just know that I’m not giving up

I’ve got a little fight left in my heart

And if you plan to leave me now

Wake me up

Wake me up

Wake me up…

Take your swings then take one more

The other cheek is bruised and torn

I hear your threats, I feel your hate

I’m screaming back with love and praise
