Lyrics
If I Could Wake up
1993
Last night I woke up
From the strangest dream
In the darkness a woman screamed
They were smoking cigarettes, I'd never seen
Shooting up with new drugs, you know what I mean
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
I want to wake up
Open up my eyes
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
I want to wake up
Just opened up my eyes
I heard the music, from down below.
Sound like a party, I want to go.
Ran down the staircase, knocked on the door.
The girl that answered she knew the score.
If I could wake up
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
Just open up my eyes
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
I want to wake up
Just open up my eyes
Man in the corner, his eyes are green.
Goats feet, and breathing steam.
Crooked claw, I want to scream.
He's reaching out for me, must be a dream.
If I could wake up
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
Just open up my eyes
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
I want to wake up
Just open up my eyes
Hand on my shoulder, it won't let go.
Running across the floor, headed for the door.
Heard the man say, you should know.
You're welcome in but you can't go.
If want to wake up
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
Just opened up my eyes
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
I want to wake up
Just opened up my eyes
Repeat:
If want to wake up
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
Just opened up my eyes
I want to wake up
If I could wake up
I want to wake up
Just opened up my eyes
