Wake Up Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Walking through the desert of the Indus Valley
I was going backwards and I swear I saw me
Talking to Vyasa and he whispered softly
“You were here before in a different body”
Running through the Jungles of the Indus Valley
I was here before in a different body
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up to life, to life
Nirvana on the last try
[Verse 2]
Now the lotus flower blooms and the sun is rising
East to the West the event horizon
I smile to Vyasa and he started rhyming
It’s better forever and ever and ever than never enough whatsoever
Running through ruins of the Indus Valley
I was here before in a different body
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up to life, to life
Nirvana on the last try
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Outro]
Nirvana on the last try
(Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up)
Nirvana on the last try
