don't wake me up Lyrics

You think that once you get to college

It gets better

When it really won't

You try to tie your life together

It's now or never

Treat your past like a ghost

They say with time

That you'll feel much better

That your wounds start to heal

But I can hear them

Feel them in my skin

Oh, what if I gave in?

You think that when you're on your own

That you've grown

Find a place to call home

Your world is spinning off it's axis

Your mind crashes

Leave you buried in the ashes

They sit and tell me

That it's growing pains

But this is driving me insane

And now I'm left with bitter aftertaste

Is my future erased?

Don't wake me up

Let my mind fall quiet

Don't break the silence

Of a mind that's reeling

It's all part of the healing process

I'm drownin' in the deep end

Don't wake me up

Not yet

Don't wake me up

'Cus my mind's still screaming

Don't shut me up

Let me say my piece

It's all part of growing older

It's got me feeling worse than before

Don't wake me up

Don't me wake me at all
