Wake up (wake up) don't let them make up (make up) all that you are, and start.
To take in (take in) what has her fakin' (fakin') somethin' she's not.
(chorus)
Be that someone, give them guidance to find love.
We're all looking for the same things to pick up.
Let your love be enough.
Look away, don't call for something' astray, someone you knew. Let it go.
I know you're only smiling 'cause you're really hiding it good, guess I should too.
(chorus)
Do you know me as good or lonely? 'Cause I feel both.
If you loved me, listen closely: I felt home.
See the things I wrote.
