Wake up angel and open up sore eyes What's the red for? These have been long nights but I have arrived and I am here to stay They'll have to k** me before they take me away from you again And we're only kids but that's no excuse to write us off the way they do It's so much more than they give us credit for and you're sure and we're on our way to go And you're safe and we are... I don't want to see anyone right now I'm sounding the retreat I'll lock my door and lay down I plan to fall asleep forever Wake up angel and open up your eyes What's the red for? Why the hiss and fight? And all the liars who whisper in your ear somehow divide us and make us insincere Oh what a shame how they ruin names and build their walls We'll build a fortress of our own And cables running through the trees will be cut off like a disease We'll throw our phones into the street and be an island in the sea where you are safe and we are sound asleep So play the songs that remind us of how warm it was in August 'cause this cold can't last forever And the sun will re-invent these barren trees Bringing up the past call out everyone for who they are Take it all back Don't go home all alone Never got a blessing out just cutting down
