[Chorus]
Sometimes I wake up and I wish I didn't wake up (Wake up)
I lose my head sometimes, but I know what I'm really made of
I'm turnin' grey again, but it's all good, it's nothin' new
I'll bounce right back until I sink again, that's all I do
Sometimes I wake up and I wish I didn't wake up (Wake up)
My whip all black to match my soul, I pull up, they like wait up
I hit the gas and for a moment I feel so alive
It's reckless, I know, I hope I don't crash and burn tonight
[Verse 1]
R.I.P what's new, gone too soon just like the rest
If I don't make it out alive I hope you know I did my best
I'm feelin' colder by the day because the world is such a mess
I'll try to keep my head above the water, feel like drownin', hold my breath
This don't sit right, can you tell me why the
Good die so young? No more tears to cry
I can't seem to sleep, you can see it in my eyes
There's ghosts all around me, they keep me up at night
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm trapped inside this bad news
I'm falling down without you
So tell me why you leave us
I'm calling out, I need you here now
[Chorus]
Sometimes I wake up, and I wish I didn't wake up (Wake up)
I lose my head sometimes, but I know what I'm really made of
I'm turnin' grey again, but it's all good, it's nothin' new
I'll bounce right back until I sink again, that's all I do
Sometimes I wake up, and I wish I didn't wake up (Wake up)
My whip all black to match my soul, I pull up they like wait up
I hit the gas and for a moment I feel so alive
It's reckless, I know, I hope I don't crash and burn tonight
[Verse 2]
Roll up, no friends, only with my demons
They act like I mean so much to them
But I'm so blinded by the kindness that I couldn't see the fangs
They were nowhere to be found when I was throwin' life away
Sinking slowly watch me wither caught up in a lie
I'll be suffering from everything until the day I die
Hope they're happy when they see me on the screen
Oh God, I'm wasted
Pull me out and save me, pull me out and save me
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm trapped inside this bad news
I'm falling down without you
So tell me why you leave us
I'm calling out, I need you here now
[Chorus]
Sometimes I wake up, and I wish I didn't wake up (Wake up)
I lose my head sometimes, but I know what I'm really made of
I'm turnin' grey again, but it's all good, it's nothin' new
I'll bounce right back until I sink again, that's all I do
Sometimes I wake up, and I wish I didn't wake up (Wake up)
My whip all black to match my soul, I pull up they like wait up
I hit the gas and for a moment I feel so alive
It's reckless, I know, I hope I don't crash and burn tonight

There’s an unfortunate trend of artists gaining success while declining in mental health.
This was kinda my interpretation of a rising musician who is surrounded by all the wrong people. They watch on as the artist slowly destroys himself.
The artist dies and all they c...
