Wake Me Up
Gavin Mikhail Lyrics

Feeling my way through the darkness
Navigating my life without a clear understanding of my path.

Guided by a beating heart
Utilizing my emotions to lead me forward in life.

I can't tell where the journey will end
Uncertainty about my future and what it holds for me.

But I know where to start
Even if I am unsure of the final destination, I have a beginning point to move forward from.

They tell me I'm too young to understand
Adults discounting my thoughts and feelings due to my age.

They say I'm caught up in a dream
My aspirations and goals are not realistic or practical according to others.

Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Without taking risks and pursuing my passions, life will slip away from me unnoticed.

Well that's fine by me
I am willing to take the chance and pursue my goals despite the uncertainty and potential difficulties.

So wake me up when it's all over
I need someone to help me see and recognize the end of my journey and the achievement of my goals.

When I'm wiser and I'm older
I need more life experience to gain insight and knowledge to apply toward my goals.

All this time I was finding myself
My journey through life has given me insight and self-discovery in who I am and what I want to achieve.

And I didn't know I was lost
While I didn't have a clear understanding of my path, I wasn't lost because my journey was leading me to self-discovery.

I tried carrying the weight of the world
I tried to solve and handle all the problems in the world on my own.

But I only have two hands
I am only one person and can only do so much.

Hope I get the chance to travel the world
One of my goals is to travel and see the world.

But I don't have any plans
I am open to the possibilities and opportunities that may come my way on this journey.

Wish that I could stay forever this young
I am content with my current state of being and do not wish to grow older and lose my current outlook on life.

Not afraid to close my eyes
I am comfortable and at peace with the unknown and embracing risks.

Life's a game made for everyone
Life is an experience that everyone is given an opportunity to take part in, make the most of, and enjoy.

And love is the prize
The love and relationships we cultivate through our experiences make the journey worthwhile.

Didn't know I was lost
I was unaware of my true path and goal, but my journey was leading me to self-discovery.

Didn't know I was lost
I was uncertain of my future, but acknowledging that uncertainty was part of discovering my journey.

Didn't know I was lost
I was missing purpose and direction, but my journey through life has helped me gain clarity.

Didn't know I was lost
I was unaware of my true self, but the journey I have taken has helped me understand who I am and what I want out of life.
