lyrics

Not sure how long can I put up with delusion
I'm tired and I need a break
Losing grip on reality and feeling like
Everything around is fake

Wasting time, nine to five and getting drunk on weekends
Shaking hands, faking smiles to all these so-called friends
Living life in disguise it’s what we all are used to
I just want to escape, I'm sick of all this pretence

Wake me up from this nightmare
Drag me out of this despair
How can we be fine trying to live a lie?
Shake me up, I feel desperate
Help me out to leave this cage
What will be at stake if the game we play is fake?

Do you remember when we were dreaming of a better life, thinking the world was ours to conquer?
But facing reality we are slowly building fences between where we are and where we wanna be
Growing stale, looking back on where we started and wondering how did we end up this way?

Just maybe I am that old-fashioned guy
Who still believes in love and tries to make things right
So skeptical about everything
Because what they say is not what they mean

And maybe I am just wasting time
Trying to figure out what's going on in life
Still wondering if it all makes sense
Still asking if it's me or everybody else
