Wake Up Soon Poem by My song Resound

I. It was like a bullet wound
It was that sinking feeling in your chest
Why were they just gone too soon
Of all the persons I met, they were the best

Did it really all just happen?
Why does everything feel unreal?
It must be my imagination...
What am I supposed to feel?

Refrain:
Can someone tell me I'm dreaming
That I must wake up soon
That it's all just a nightmare
That I'm sleeping in my room
Cause I don't know if I can take it
How to navigate this world without your words
I still got so much to learn

II. Overwhelming grief washes over me
It was just too much and I started drowning
Gently and violently like the sea
I don't know how to swim so I'm sinking

III. Gently sway across the waves
Uplifting my spirit when I fail
Violent spates as the ocean raves
And I'm left with wet splotchy trails


Can you wake me up?
My life is a lie and everything is all made up
Why do all my nightmares refuse to stop?
How do I feel nothing?
I numb myself from feeling things to stop them flooding
I would play pretend, pretend I'm something
Shot me at my heart
I bled too much, in pain too much that I forgot how
To live my life like I should, how to start
