Say Anything – The Great Awakening lyrics

[Verse 1]
As I watch you doze away
You slept through minutes and hours and days
Your breath comes quiet and still
So still
I'll wake you from your bed
The night is young and the sky overhead
Will burn but not for long
So here's your song

[Pre-Chorus]
Here's my lullaby
Designed to wake you up

[Verse 2]
I'll conduct an orchestra
Of crickets and mice to squeak through the night
'Til the world awakes as one
As one
And no one will be afraid
Of the monsters and goyles that lurk in the way
And I can feed this world
Can feast, can feast

[Chorus]
Here's my lullaby
Designed to wake you up
Don't you close your eyes
The world has sealed them shut again

[Bridge]
La da da...

[Verse 3]
Do you wanna be sung sleep
I prefer instead to slaughter the sheep
You count each night it seems
And waste a thousand dreams

[Chorus]
Here's my lullaby
Designed to wake you up
Don't you close your eyes
The world has sealed them shut
Here's my lullaby
Designed to wake you up
Don't you close your eyes
The world has sealed them shut again

[Outro]
This is the great awakening
This is the great awakening
This is the great awakening
This is the great awakening
