Wake Me Up
Discovering Life's Journey Through the Beat of the Heart
Lyrics
Feeling my way through the darkness
Expressing a sense of uncertainty and confusion in life's journey.
Guided by a beating heart
Being guided by emotions and passion.
I can't tell where the journey will end
Uncertain about the destination of the journey.
But I know where to start
Despite the uncertainty, having a clear starting point.
They tell me I'm too young to understand
Others perceive the speaker as too young to comprehend life.
They say I'm caught up in a dream
People think the speaker is living in an unrealistic fantasy.
Well life will pass me by
Life will pass by if the speaker doesn't gain awareness.
If I don't open up my eyes
The importance of opening one's eyes to reality.
Well that's fine by me
Acceptance of the possibility that life may pass by without realization.
So wake me up when it's all over
Expressing a desire to be awakened when challenges are overcome.
When I'm wiser and I'm older
Asking to be awakened when wisdom and maturity are attained.
All this time I was finding myself
Discovering one's true identity and purpose over time.
And I didn't know I was lost
Realizing that the speaker was lost without self-awareness.
So wake me up when it's all over
Reiteration of the desire to be awakened after overcoming challenges.
When I'm wiser and I'm older
Requesting to be awakened when both wiser and older.
All this time I was finding myself
Reiterating the theme of self-discovery over time.
And I didn't know I was lost
Acknowledging the past unawareness of being lost.
I tried carrying the weight of the world
Attempting to carry the burdens and responsibilities of life.
But I only have two hands
Recognition of limited capabilities to handle life's challenges.
Hope I get the chance to travel the world
Expressing a desire to explore the world without concrete plans.
But I don't have any plans
Emphasizing the lack of rigid future plans.
Wish that I could stay forever this young
Wishing to maintain a youthful and carefree mindset.
Not afraid to close my eyes
Not fearing the unknown or closing oneself off from experiences.
Life's a game made for everyone
Viewing life as a universal game accessible to everyone.
And love is the prize
Love is presented as a valuable reward in life's game.
So wake me up when it's all over
Reiteration of the desire to be awakened after overcoming challenges.
When I'm wiser and I'm older
Requesting to be awakened when both wiser and older.
All this time I was finding myself
Emphasizing the theme of self-discovery over time.
And I didn't know I was lost
Acknowledging the past unawareness of being lost.
So wake me up when it's all over
Reiteration of the desire to be awakened after overcoming challenges.
When I'm wiser and I'm older
Requesting to be awakened when both wiser and older.
All this time I was finding myself
Emphasizing the theme of self-discovery over time.
And I didn't know I was lost
Acknowledging the past unawareness of being lost.
I didn't know I was lost
Highlighting the realization of being lost.
I didn't know I was lost
Repetition for emphasis on the speaker's previous lack of awareness.
I didn't know I was lost
-I didn't know, didn't know, didn't know
