"Waking Up" lyrics

"Waking Up"

I don't want nobody
I don't need that shit
Nothing good ever came
From anytime I did

So what the fuck is going on here?
Tender-hearted love
I was always dreaming falsely
I must be waking up

Lovers come and lovers go
Ironically so called
Love wasn't in the room
Two grifters, that was all

Morning sun, a sweet surprise
It's finally looking up
The dream is over, done and dusted
Now I'm waking up

I don't have any voice
You don't have any choice
It's best we get out of the way

Nothing new, but everything
Every day is brave
Anything can happen now
Nothing's ever safe

So why don't you just take my hand
And take a chance on love?
The day is here and I won't blow it
I am waking up

And waking up next to you
Is all I really want
