"Wake Up!"

who really knows what is real and fake

the more we give, the more that we take

but when I sleep, I fall into a daydream

knowing that I will soon desperately wake

***

to worry or not, that is the final question

nevermind the glory of the day's lesson

I wake up, and I'm seeing my reflective flaws

staring right back at me, udeniable imperfection

***

so wake up and begin your wanted vacation

a perfect day for simple-minded suspension

an escape from every lonely, faded nightmare

looking back at what you've done, and been

***

today your morning will set you free at last

from the lingering mournings of your own past

so get up and wake up, one more time, just try

the days get wasted, but I know, the test will pass
