Wake Me Up
Jona Selle Lyrics

Feeling my way through the darkness
Navigating through life without a clear path or vision

Guided by a beating heart
Driven by passion and desire to succeed

I can't tell where the journey will end
Uncertain about the future and what it holds

But I know where it starts
Aware of the beginning and the starting point of the journey

They tell me I'm too young to understand
People underestimate my ability to comprehend life and its lessons

They say caught up in a dream
People think I am lost in my own imagination and not grounded in reality

Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
If I don't become aware of my surroundings, I risk missing out on valuable experiences

That's fine by me
I am content with the risks and consequences of my actions

So wake me up when it's all over when I'm wiser and I'm older
I'm willing to take risks now and face the consequences, but I hope to gain wisdom from those experiences in the future

All this time I was finding myself and I... didn't know I was lost
Through the journey of life, I am discovering my true self, even though I didn't realize I needed to be found

I tried carrying the weight of the world but I only have two hands
I attempted to tackle all of life's problems at once, but I am only one person with limited abilities and resources

I hope I get the chance to travel the world and I don't have any plans
I look forward to the opportunity to explore different cultures and places without the constraints of a strict itinerary

I wish that I could stay forever this young, not afraid to close my eyes
I want to maintain a youthful spirit and sense of adventure, not letting fear hold me back

Life's a game made for everyone and love is a prize
Life as we know it is an experience available to all, with love being the ultimate goal

I didn't know I was lost
Repeating this line emphasizes the idea that I am discovering myself without realizing I needed to be found
