Wake me Lyrics

Just a mother and sons livin' under the gun Bruises on their backs were just another Sign of the push and the shove and the lack of the love On the side of the tracks that they were brought up
Now they’re speakin' it out through the silence and doubt Try to figure it out but get caught up In the here and the now and the where and the how You know what it’s about when they say
Wake me when it’s over Pick me up, I’m on the ground Wake me when it’s over, now
She’s just a girl on the run, hit the streets so undone Mistreated under the sheets by her father Keeps her heart cold and numb, thoughts she can’t overcome Still she looks for the one that could save her
Now she’s workin' it out in the corner of town Between 7th and south you will find her With her head in the clouds and her back on the ground You know what it’s about when she says
Wake me when it’s over Pick me up, I’m on the ground Wake me when it’s over Show me where the light is found Wake me when it’s over, now
Where are the fathers of the fatherless?
Now they’re speakin' it out through the silence and doubt Try to figure it out but get caught up In the here and the now and the where and the how You know, what it’s about when the say
Wake me when it’s over Pick me up, I’m on the ground Wake me when it’s over Show me where the light is found
Wake me when it’s over I swear I will not make a sound Wake me when it’s over Wake me when it’s over Wake me when it’s over
Wake me, wake me, wake me, wake me When it’s over When it’s over When it’s over When it’s over
