William Varney - I Woke Up Lyrics

I was walking through my life
Like a shadow in the night
Stumbling on my feet
Never feeling right
Trying so hard to live up to
What others expected of me
It's so easy to fall
When you can't even see
Kicked down, let down, put down
And betrayed by friends
But before you face beginnings
You gotta face the end
So I woke up
Yeah, I woke up
The little town I used to live in
The people that I knew
Had the best intentions
As they put the screw to you
Still, there are those I dearly miss
But some I just don't care
The ones who have no vision
Of what's happening out here
It's hard to fight a current
As it's sweeping you away
But if drowning is the choice
I guess I'll swim, if that's okay
And I woke up
Yeah, I woke up
Still I love you
Yes I do
But, I woke up
Yeah, I had to wake
Well, I woke up

I was walking through my life
Like a shadow in the night
Stumbling on my feet
Never feeling right
Trying so hard to live up to
What others expected of me
It's so easy to fall
When you can't even see
Kicked down, let down, put down
And betrayed by friends
But before you face beginnings
You gotta face the end
So I woke up
Yeah, I woke up
The little town I used to live in
The people that I knew
Had the best intentions
As they put the screw to you
Still, there are those I dearly miss
But some I just don't care
The ones who have no vision
Of what's happening out here
It's hard to fight a current
As it's sweeping you away
But if drowning is the choice
I guess I'll swim, if that's okay
And I woke up
Yeah, I woke up
Still I love you
Yes I do
But, I woke up
Yeah, I had to wake
Well, I woke up
