Wake Me When It's Over

How did we get here? 
It makes no sense at all 
That we would come this far just to fall
I feel you near me but you’re slipping away
And I’m afraid 
I’m afraid

Take my hand, don’t let go    
Please hold on
I don’t want to be alone 
Without you
Will we make it? 
I can’t take this 
I have to close my eyes
Hope that we’ll come out alright 
Wake me when it’s over

On through the badlands 
Desperate to find
Any trace of life that’s been left behind
And with you beside me every step of the way
I hear you say 
Hear you say

Take my hand, don’t let go    
Please hold on
I don’t want to be alone 
Without you
Will we make it? 
I can’t take this 
I have to close my eyes
Hope that we’ll come out alright 
Wake me when it’s over
Wake me when it’s over 

It makes no sense at all
How did we get here?
It makes no sense at all

Will we make it? 
I can’t take this 
I have to close my eyes
Hope we’ll come out alright 
Hope we’ll come out alright
Will we come out alright? 

Wake me when it's over
