yeah, here i stand holding on to memories a box full of everything you meant to me and it opens up and i pull one out and i slowly start to read i know you're gone and even though it hurts to see i carry on like it doesn't mean a thing but i know deep down inside i slowly bleed
yeah, but here i stand against the odds against the fights and against the fall against the winds and against the grain you take it all just leave my name cause after this it's not the same i pull a match out and start the flame i can't think of us and what we became so i close my eyes and i look away
i see through you like a ghost behind my footsteps in shadows when god knows this is as far as i can go this place is bleeding me dry i tried to make things right another sleepless night
when morning comes i hope you're somewhere else it's better than waking up and lying to ourselves
you cut me down and i cut you back we are the same inside
with my back against the wall against the fact that i'll never fall and you deal with that when you cut me back you cut me deep and i'll never show so you'll never see that i carry your scars with me
when morning comes i hope you're somewhere else it's better than waking up and lying to ourselves it makes you reconsider everything it makes you reconsider everything
i wish i was empty wish i was someone else i've changed so much i don't know myself my shadow, i've got you figured out there's nowhere for you now i see through you like a ghost

What is the meaning behind Waking Up lyrics?
When we think about what all of this might truly mean, Dangerkids' 'Waking Up' is a song that talks about the pain of being in a broken relationship and the fight to get over it. The metaphors 'ghost' and 'shadows' are used to express how past memories and emotional scars are still very much alive. Waking up lyrics predominantly highlight love, despair, reflection and solitude. However, at the same time, the song lays heavy on the issues of letting go, resistance, self-examination, bitterness and resentment, and finally, hope for change. The lyrics depict themes with metaphors of harsh emotions, conflict, and self-harm (e.g., 'I pull a match out and start the flame', 'This place is bleeding me dry'). The combination of these factors along with the mature themes and the very strong emotional expressions indeed calls for a PG-13 rating as it is the only way to make parents aware of the content's non-suitability for younger audiences. ✔️
