Wake Me from Comfort World by Cumulus

I am the painter of my mind
In the morning I’m the one to choose
What color grey, what color blue
And on the good days a shiny golden hue

I am the runner who stays inside.
I am a good person, who lies sometimes.
I’m a person getting older
And I hardly recognize
Even the best things when their right in front of my own eyes.

Can you shake me, can you turn me over?
Can you wake me up, I’m alive.
I’m alive, and I don’t want to be alone tonight.
I’m alive, I’m alive
Turn the covers down I’m alive.

I used to look in windows, I get drawn into the light
The family around the table, that moment when everything is right.
I would watch her garden, hands buried in the dirt.
I need to get lost in something, even if it hurts.

Can you shake me, can you turn me over?
Can you wake me up, I’m alive.
I’m alive, and I don’t want to be alone tonight.
I’m alive, I’m alive
Turn the covers down I’m alive.

We could be the rise before the fall
We are more than shadows on the wall
If you pick me up where you know I’ll be
I’ve been sleeping in
Just a little too deep.

Can you shake me, can you turn me over?
Can you wake me up, I’m alive.
I’m alive, and I don’t want to be alone tonight.
I’m alive, I’m alive
Turn the covers down I’m alive.
