Wake Up
Eternal Slumber: Navigating Dreams and Desires in Lisa Dacklin's 'Wake Up'
Lyrics
Sleeping tight
Feeling secure and at ease in a state of rest
Always wanting more from life
Constantly desiring more fulfillment from life
Never wandered out of line
Never deviating from expected behavior or norms
I made sure I could call you mine
Ensuring a committed and exclusive relationship
Every night
Each night
I'm searching for solutions
Actively seeking solutions to challenges
Adapting to confusions
Adjusting to uncertainties and complexities
The morning comes
The beginning of a new day
But I'll remain asleep
Choosing to stay oblivious or disconnected
I can't wake up right now, you know
Expressing the inability to face reality at the moment
These nights still won't be enough
Even these nights of escape are not sufficient
I can't wake up right now, you know
Reiterating the difficulty in waking up presently
These nights still won't be enough
Despite the desire, the nights are insufficient
So many nights
Many occasions
Searching for illusions
Seeking things that may not be real or attainable
Dodging all delusions
Avoiding false beliefs or misinterpretations
Doubting my intuition
Questioning one's own instincts or understanding
Everything just goes around
Life's events repeating cyclically
Around, around
Continuously recurring
Rationality has left my house
Logical thinking has departed from one's life
The morning comes
Another morning arrives
But I'll remain asleep
Choosing to remain in a state of unawareness
I can't wake up right now, you know
Reaffirming the current inability to wake up
These nights still won't be enough
Even now, these nights are not sufficient
I can't wake up right now, you know
Reiterating the ongoing difficulty in waking up
These nights still won't be enough
Despite the desire, the nights are still inadequate
A disaster won't wake me up
External crises or challenges cannot prompt awakening
No light can make me react
No external illumination can induce a response
And nothing is loud enough
Nothing is loud or impactful enough to prompt action
I can't wake up right now, you know
Reaffirming the current inability to face reality
These nights still seem not to be enough
Even now, these nights seem insufficient
I can't wake up right now, you know
Reiterating the ongoing difficulty in waking up
These nights still won't be enough
Despite the desire, the nights are still not enough
