Хит 2012 I Avicii feat. Aloe Blacc Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where to start
They tell me I'm too young to understand
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Well that's fine by me
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
I tried carrying the weight of the world
But I only have two hands
I hope I get the chance to travel the world
But I don't have any plans
I wish that I could stay forever this young
Not afraid to close my eyes
Life's a game made for everyone
And love is the prize
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost
The lyrics of Avicii's 'Wake Me Up,' as interpreted, convey a message of youthful exploration, self-discovery, and the importance of embracing life experiences fully. The song's narrator is a young individual who is attempting to navigate their way through life, guided only by their 'beating heart'. The journey's end is unknown to them, but the singer is confident that they know where to begin.
The chorus serves as the central message of the song, asking to be woken up when it is all over and they are wiser and older. The singer seems to be acknowledging that they still have a lot of self-discovery and exploration to do, and they are willing to take the time to do it fully. They are conscious that they are too young to understand everything fully, and the world might pass them by if they do not open their eyes, but they are content with that.
Besides, the singer acknowledges that they can only do so much, carrying the weight of the world with two hands. Still, they aspire to travel and see the world, although they do not have any concrete plans. The song concludes that life is a game for everyone, and the prize is love, and it is necessary to embrace all that comes with it.

Don’t cry because he died
Smile because he was here.

“So wake me up when it’s all over.” Such a sad line now.
Avicii really cared for his fans, his family, and his friends. But sometimes the stress of it all can add up. Which led to the death of one of this generations Icons Tim Bergling. Rest easy Tim and keep waving that hand in heaven.

Him and Chester we’re both well aware and quite deep in exposing some of the darkest sides this reality has… i’m not denying either of them suffered with mental health issues throughout their life and career; but i see this song as a message of hope that one day he can return and re-awaken when these dark times are over.

Mental Health is super vital for us... It's so good to see that the Tim Bergling Foundation was
made in order to prevent suicide and help others with mental health issues. MENTAL HEALTH IS NOT A JOKE
