about

“Wake up, you’re still at the wheel now.” Don’t forget that you are in control of your life and you are not controlled by your past. “Wake Up” is a breakup song disguised as a driving power pop jam. It has a theme very close to our song “Touch the Flame”, where we address tendencies to think about that which may hurt you. In this song, daydreaming about lost love brings us to an unfortunate car crash at the end.

lyrics

Well I’m on the highway
Driving past where we lived
Everything went sideways
We lost the innocence of kids

Wake up
You’re still at the wheel now
Wake up
Daydreaming of you now

Do you remember what I promised you
I would always love what we were and what we’d turn into
I would always have a song in my heart to sing, or two, or three about you and me
I would always simply love you, as long as you loved me

Wake up
You’re still at the wheel now
Wake up
Daydreaming of you now

Falling through the sky
Try to figure out why
Lights flashing red and blue
All I’m worried about is you
