After, after all, we are the same as we always were
We cover and carry on, like everything’s copasetic and
Courage we felt at all, feels like failure overcome

Sometimes I feel like I can't wake up

I'm trying to breathe, I wanna let go
So I can feel again
I break up, I trying to see
If I can let go (I wanna pull away) and feel again

Sober we pulled it off, I'm clean and I'm cursed it's one in all
We forget the chemicals, faking the sense of self and heart

Sometimes I feel like I can't wake up

I'm trying to breathe, I wanna let go
So I can feel again
I break up, I trying to see
If I can let go (I wanna pull away) and feel again

Wake up
(I'm not awake) I'm slowly burning away
(I'm not ok) falling flat on my face
Down on the pavement, I'm fighting the weight
(I'm not awake) I'm slowly burning away

Sometimes I feel like I can't wake up

I'm trying to breathe, I wanna let go
So I can feel again
I break up, I trying to see
If I can let go (I wanna pull away) and feel again

I'm not awake
Feel again
I'm not ok

    Isn't yellowcard a emo punk band? Assuming your name has meaning to that band, yellowcarded. I seen this band in concert. Amongst buckcherry, pappa roach and hinder and the best performance was from these guys. They know how to rock live. I'd love to see them again.
