Lyrics
Wake up - Hear my call
Awakening and a call to attention.
Open your eyes - now!
Encouragement to be aware and alert.
The night has come and you look so peaceful
Observing a peaceful appearance during the night.
To see you sleeping feels so painful
Expressing emotional pain while watching someone sleep.
I see the scars and hear your breath is shallow
Noticing scars and shallow breath, indicating vulnerability.
I pray to god: Please don't leave... leave us abandoned
A plea to God not to abandon the person.
Holding your hand we know you're strong
Recognizing strength by holding the person's hand.
We can only hope that you are strong enough
Hoping the person is strong enough for the challenges.
In the end you'll be a winner
Optimistic assertion that the person will ultimately succeed.
The battle's lost, you hit the ground
Acknowledgment of a lost battle and hitting the ground.
Your fight has just begun
Emphasizing the beginning of a new phase in the struggle.
prepare for a new beginning
Encouraging preparation for a fresh start.
We believe in you to win
Expressing belief in the person's ability to win.
Your hardest fight
Highlighting the intensity of the upcoming fight.
Before you fell you were my hero
Recollecting the person as a hero before the struggle.
Now I'm (standing here) feeling even closer to you
Feeling closer to the person after witnessing the fall.
Before you fell I knew you as a fighter
Remembering the person as a fighter before adversity.
Now I hope to get to know you as a survivor
Hoping to witness the person's survival and recovery.
You open your eyes, what a relief
Expressing relief as the person opens their eyes.
We say it together, once more!
Repeating a collective expression of relief and support.
