SUICIDAL TENDENCIES
"If I Don't Wake Up"

There are some things you're not supposed to talk about, like all the things I ever think about.

I guess I'll try, I just wanna sleep
Slip away in a trance so deep.
Feel my soul floating free, no more pain left in me.
And then I sleep until tomorrow, when I wake again I wake up in sorrow.
Another person, another day.
I probably won't remember it anyway, well...

Seems like the world is leaving me behind, when I try to explain you say I've lost my mind.
You say I need some help, well how else do you think it's going to help until you you get to know it's true.
No help from you.
So I sit and think about the things that I'm not supposed to talk about.
I think and I think and I think and I think and, never no progress,
I know I'm not the only one...

WAKE UP!

Why do I wake up in the morning? - nothing has changed since the day of my birth
Why do I wake up in the morning? - I make no difference on this earth

Strength has left - has to be - something has died inside of me

If I don't wake up in the morning - at my funeral world anyone even care?
If I don't wake up in the morning - would anyone even be there?

You can put me down - you can put me out, you can try to ignore
But now you're gonna hearing me when I shout WAKE UP

WAKE UP! [2x]

Why should I wake up in the morning? - it'll be just another wasted day
Why should I wake up in the morning? - don't do nothing right anyway

That was then - not anymore - now I go blasting out the door

I'm gonna wake up in the morning - I'll prove you wrong I will not fail
I'm gonna wake up in the morning - I'm gonna blaze a brand new trail

Might not be smart, but if I'm strong
I know for sure that no one ever will prove me wrong

I'll still wake up in the morning
