Wake me up inside, tell me there's a reason, to take another step
To get up off my knees and follow this path of most resistance
Whatever it takes us, whatever it faces and where ever it leads

So wake me when it's through
I don't want to feel the things that you do
Don't worry I'll be fine, I just don't want this dream
Wake me up inside

Something for the pain, just to kill this feeling
Though we look awake, inside we're all still sleeping
And I spend my time here alive but barely there
Do you believe we'll ever make it, do you think we'll ever really see

So wake me when it's through
I don't want to feel the things that you do
Don't worry I'll be fine, I just don't want this dream
Wake me up inside

Wake me up inside, these dreams all die if we let them
Wake me up inside, today won't start if we just give in
Don't show me anything

Just wake me when it's through
I don't want to feel the things that you do
Don't worry I'll be fine
I just don't want this dream
Wake me up inside

    I always like to interpret songs using other songs that seem to aim for the same message but are slightly less obscure and metaphorical. This song seems relatively parallel, meaning-wise, though more metaphorical, to "Cold Feelings" by Social Distortion.
