I take the same way to work each day, sometimes only half awake.
I rarely change it up, and take the same way back.
Someone please tell me how to find another path,
I don't know how much certainty one lonely heart can take.
*
I just want to feel alive.
I just wanna matter sometimes,
oh please, what's it gonna take to wake me up inside?
*
Just going through the motions,
but deep down a piece hangs on.
Hoping that I’m gonna get it right-
holding on to make through another night.
*
I’ve created a façade,
and everybody plays along.
They don’t wanna see the difference,
It’s easier to be indifferent
*
I just wanna feel alive,
I just wanna matter sometimes.
Oh please, tell me how to wake me up inside!
*
Cause this waiting on the answer, never taking any chances-
is eating me alive!
I need something to revive me, I need someone to remind me-
I'm still breathing, and I'm worth saving!
*
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna matter sometimes
Can anyone please,
Please, just wake me up!?
