Wake me up
    Slap my face
    Draw me closer in
    To your embrace
    
    Cause nobody wants to be the butt of every joke
    And nobody wants to be the one to pull the rope
    So you harden your shell
    Slowly losing yourself
    
    And now I'm close
    But not touching
    And I'm cold
    But not freezing
    And I'm only alive
    Only alive
    Briefly
    
    Can you feel
    Could you love
    Are you further now from where you started
    I bet you do enough just to get by
    Don't you
    
    Cause nobody wants to be the butt of every joke
    And nobody wants to be the one who's full of hope
    And a cop's light goes by
    And the moon lights the night
    
    And now I'm close
    But not touching
    And I'm cold
    But not freezing
    And I'm only alive
    Only alive
    Briefly
    
    And you're a starlight that shines
    For a moment in time
    In time
