[Intro - Clean guitar arpeggios and steady drum groove] [Verse 1] You scroll through a window, the world in your hand But the glass is a mirror, it’s not where you stand All those voices talking, no one really speaks You’re waiting on a future that’s been waiting for weeks [Chorus] Wake the day before it wakes you Step outside, there’s more to do No one’s coming to hand you the truth Wake the day before it wakes you [Verse 2] Your friends are all moving, but no one’s arrived They post their reflections, pretend they’re alive But a spark in your pocket can’t light up the street You’ve got legs to move you, you’ve got shoes on your feet [Chorus] Wake the day before it wakes you Step outside, there’s more to do No one’s coming to hand you the truth Wake the day before it wakes you [Bridge - Guitar build and vocal harmony] The map’s not drawn, but your hands can write Every wrong turn still turns out right Don’t fade to gray, don’t fade away Your time starts today [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] There’s a hum in your chest that you try to ignore It’s the sound of a door you’ve been looking for There’s a crack in the wall where the daylight comes through It’s a sign, it’s a start, it’s a call to move [Chorus] Wake the day before it wakes you Step outside, there’s more to do No one’s coming to hand you the truth Wake the day before it wakes you [Outro - Instrumental fade with repeating vocal line] Wake the day, wake the day Wake the day before it wakes you [Fade Out]
