[Verse]
I close my eyes to the grey of the street
Wishing for skies where the colors compete
Neon stars
Glowing swords
And the clash of fate
A world where my name holds more than my weight
[Prechorus]
Here I'm a shadow
There I'd be light
Here I am nothing
There I might fight
[Chorus]
I wanna wake up in an anime
Where the wind sings words I wanna say
Where the moon’s too close and the sun’s too shy
And every battle feels like I could fly
Let me wake
Oh let me wake
In an anime
[Verse 2]
Crystals in caves
Maps that shift in my hands
A city afloat
Kingdoms buried in sand
Talking cats with secrets they won’t share
Enemies with eyes that burn through the air
[Prechorus]
Here I am static
There I would run
Here I am fading
There I’d become
[Chorus]
I wanna wake up in an anime
Where the skies bleed pink at the break of day
Where the fire rains and the heroes cry
And the quiet ones hold the loudest why
Let me wake
Oh let me wake
In an anime
