Track 1: „Wake Me From Heaven“

[Intro – whispered] Can you hear me? I'm still breathing... But I don't know if I'm alive. [Verse 1] I built a perfect little world From photographs and pretty words I learned to smile when they were watching Learned to bleed without a sound Every mirror told me I was everything I should be But underneath the painted heaven There was nothing left of me [Pre-Chorus] Then you looked into my eyes Like you could see behind the light You said, “Why are you sleeping When your heart still wants to fight?” [Chorus] Wake me from heaven If heaven feels like this Drag me through the fire Remind me I exist Break every window Let the cold come rushing in I'd rather hurt beside you Than never feel again Wake me! Wake me from heaven! [Verse 2] I wore my halo like a chain Called my emptiness a home Every prayer became an echo Every crowded room felt cold Then your hand reached through the silence Not to save me, not to heal You just whispered, “If you're frightened, At least you know that you can feel.” [Pre-Chorus] So tear the white wings from my back Let every false horizon crack If paradise means losing myself I don't ever want it back [Chorus] Wake me from heaven If heaven feels like this Drag me through the fire Remind me I exist Break every window Let the cold come rushing in I'd rather hurt beside you Than never feel again Wake me! Wake me from heaven! [Bridge – orchestral breakdown] No more beautiful cages No more innocent lies No more begging for angels While I'm dying inside If I fall, let me fall If I scream, let it start I don't need resurrection I just need my own heart [Breakdown] Wake me! From the silence! From perfection! From the person I pretended to be! [Final Chorus] WAKE ME FROM HEAVEN! LET HEAVEN WATCH ME BURN! I gave away my heartbeat Now I'm taking my return Break every window Let the whole damn world rush in I'd rather bleed from living Than be beautiful within Wake me from heaven! Wake me from heaven! I'm alive! I'm alive! I'm alive again! [Outro – whispered] Don't save me. Just... wake me.
