The Awakening

Wake me up when it all ends Please wake me up when my heart mends. I don't want to see the dimmest light I don't want up til it's alright. Don't shake me up, or say my name Please wait til things are back the same. If not the same; atleast anew And don't wake me until its through. I'll be hiding in the dark My brain shut down, my heart in park. My eyes are closed cause I'm afraid To see all the mistakes I've made. Don't aggrevate my humble rest Before all things are at their best. Putting all this stuff on you Even seems like too much to do. It seems I have lost all control I've lost all courage, and lost my soul. Too weak, to even think of strong Please let me sleep, I don't care how long. Remember to wake me, I told you when And I will get up, but only then. If you never awaken me, and walk away I'm sorry you had to leave me this way.
