Wake Me Up Lyrics

[Verse 1: The Weeknd]
All I have is my legacy
I been losing my memory
No afterlife, no other side
I'm all alone when it fades to black
Fades to black
No afterlife, no other side
I'm all alone when it fades
Play smile, live fully
When life is hard
I know death's easy
Woah

[Verse 2: The Weeknd]
Sun is never rising
I don't know if it's day or night (Or night)
And I can't find the horizon (Horizon)
I'm running out of time (Time)

[Pre-Chorus]
Are you real, or are you an illusion?
'Cause I fear your love's my delusion

[Chorus: The Weeknd]
Wake me up, come find me
It feels like I'm dying
Wake me up, these demons
Keep creeping, don't fear 'em
Wake me up

[Post-Chorus: The Weeknd]
Oh, ooh-ooh

[Verse 3: The Weeknd]
It's coming to the wire
I'm feeling like I'm paralyzed
Cleanse me with your fire (Hey)
Open up my eyes

[Pre-Chorus: The Weeknd]
Are you real (Are you real?)
Or are you an illusion?
'Cause I fear your love's my delusion

[Chorus: The Weeknd]
Wake me up, come find me
It feels like I'm dying (Ooh-woah)
Wake me up, these demons (These demons)
Keep creeping (Keep creeping)
Don't fear 'em (Ooh-woah)
Wake me up, 'cause I'm trying (I'm trying)
This sleep is (This sleep is) paralyzing (Oh)
Wake me up, 'cause I'm dreaming (I'm dreaming)
It feels so (Hey) damn real (Hey)
Wake me up

[Outro: The Weeknd]
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-ooh-ooh
