Lyrics

[INTRO]
Wake up, wake up, the clock ticks away,
Another early morning, oh, here comes the day.
I roll out of bed, but I'd rather stay,
Caught up in my dreams, let me drift away.

[VERSE 1]
Why do I have to wake up so early,
Every morning's a struggle, it feels so surly.
Seven o'clock hits, and it’s time to rise,
With heavy eyes staring at the same old skies.
Down the stairs, make my coffee strong,
Just one sip feels like I’m where I belong.
Pack up my things, but I’m feeling a weight,
Time ticking down, but it ain't my fate.

[CHORUS]
Oh, it’s such a shame, feels like a game,
Wasting my energy, it’s all just the same.
Why can’t someone see, this isn’t for me?
Oh, a little attention, would set my heart free.

[VERSE 2]
The school I go to doesn’t feel like home,
In a crowd of faces, I still feel alone.
A desk in the back, can’t hear my own voice,
Wish they’d listen close, let me have a choice.
So I sit through the lessons, my mind drifts away,
Dreaming of freedom, of a bright sunny day.
Each ticking minute, like a chain around me,
An endless routine, where’s the remedy?

[CHORUS]
Oh, it’s such a shame, feels like a game,
Wasting my energy, it’s all just the same.
Why can’t someone see, this isn’t for me?
Oh, a little attention, would set my heart free.

[BRIDGE]
They don’t see the struggle, they don’t feel the pain,
Just another kid in a system, going insane.
But I’ve got a dream that’s waiting to shine,
One day I’ll break free, oh, I’m drawing the line.

[CHORUS]
Oh, it’s such a shame, feels like a game,
Wasting my energy, it’s all just the same.
Why can’t someone see, this isn’t for me?
Oh, a little attention, would set my heart free.

[OUTRO]
So here I go again, with coffee in hand,
Hoping to make it through as I stand I wish I could just stay in my bed with the peaceful spirit playing inside my head
