Wake Up Songtext
von The Magic Numbers

Wake up
Open up your eyes
We′re imprisoned by our own affection
Is that all you'll leave behind?

Future
You sentimental fools
Let′s pretend in life it never happened
And the universe is still wide open

Nobody knows this is happening
It's happening
Nobody knows this is happening
It's happening
It′s happening
Right before our eyes
Oh-ho
Oh-ho-ho


Lover
We stare into the void
And all those lonely frightened little people
Are all staring back at us

Power
This self-destructive voice
And if the hand that gives just keeps on taking
What becomes of us, if we keep breaking?

Nobody knows this is happening
It′s happening
Nobody knows this is happening
It's happening
It′s happening
Now before our eyes
Oh-ho
Oh-ho-ho

Ain't it funny
How time just slips away
And you′re forced to move on
But you're fumbling instead?


How powerless am I? (Our love is like an animal)
How powerless am I? (I love you like an animal)
Like a mother to a child (our love is like an animal)
You put your hand in mine (I love you like an animal)

Oh, ain′t it funny? (our love is like an animal)
The darkness fades away (I love you like an animal)
And you're all that you ever thought (I love you like an animal)
Will it all remain? (I love you like an animal)

I love you like an animal
I love you like an animal
Like an animal
Like an animal
Like an animal
Like an animal
