Lyrics
wake up
it’s not a matter of what is right
it’s not a matter of what is wrong
it’s just about this precious waste of space
us trying to keep something so far gone
you better put church back into state
while you just separate note from song
baby just try and hold your breath
while you got this fire on your tongue
then I wake up without a doubt
outside my window
it rains hard enough
it’s beatin’ me up
soaking sense into me
my eyes capsize
wake up manifest destiny
tell me why is it when it rains
it’s like being rocked back to sleep
rocked back to where
the season’s never change
right back to where
the strongest ones are weak
you can rewrite scenes to make ammends
in a film where night time never ends
where the misplaced details might offend
take to your end and start again
then I wake up without a doubt
outside my window
it rains hard enough
it’s beatin’ me up
soaking sense into me
my eyes capsize
wake up manifest destiny
somehow my road just forked in two
after miles of warning signs
but when you’re asleep and on the loose
that’s when you think everything’s just fine
well baby I got some news for you
I'm the young one
I am new
but I won’t say the same thing after you
who taught me everything I knew
then I wake up without a doubt
outside my window
it rains hard enough
it’s beatin’ me up
soaking sense into me
my eyes capsize
wake up manifest destiny
