[Verse 1]
(Male)
Blue lights blur on the concrete
Someone ran in just to drag a friend
They were shouting
“It’s gonna be okay”
Then the shouting turned silent again
[Pre-Chorus]
(Male)
I keep scrolling past the sirens
Every headline feels the same
Tell me who gave you the power
To set the world on flames
[Chorus]
(Both)
Wake me if it’s over
If this is just a twisted dream
Are we asleep on a rollercoaster
That only goes down
That only screams
Is this world real or broken
Can I claw my way outside
Wake me if it’s over
Or at least stay by my side (by my side)
[Verse 2]
(Female)
You smile sharp on the big screen
Dirty hands hidden in a clean suit
Selling hope with your crooked grin
While you’re stomping on the roots
[Pre-Chorus]
(Female)
You were supposed to be our shelter
Now you’re standing there
So proud
How’d the biggest thief in the room
End up talking to the crowd? (why?)
[Chorus]
(Both)
Wake me if it’s over
If this is just a twisted dream
Are we asleep on a rollercoaster
That only goes down
That only screams
Is this world real or broken
Can I claw my way outside
Wake me if it’s over
Or at least stay by my side
[Bridge]
(Both, soft)
Maybe we’re ghosts just walking
Through a game we never chose
Maybe the rules were written
To keep our eyes closed
(Male)
If I reach for you
Don’t vanish
(Female)
If I fall
Will you fall too? (yeah)
(Both)
If this nightmare is a mirror
I just wanna break it through
[Chorus]
(Both, bigger)
Wake me if it’s over
If this is just a twisted dream
Are we asleep on a rollercoaster
That only goes down
That only screams
Is this world real or broken
Or a glitch inside our minds
Wake me if it’s over
Till then
Just hold my hand
Till then
Don’t leave me behind (don’t leave me behind)
