Wake up, young man, it's time to wake up
Your love affair has got to go
For ten long years
For ten long years the leaves to rake up
Slow suicide's no way to go
Blue, clouded grey
You're not a crack up
Dizzy and weakened by the haze
Moving onward
So an infection not a phase
The cracks and lines from where you gave up
They make an easy man to read
For all the times you let them bleed you
For little peace from God you plead and beg
For little peace from God you plead
Wake up young man, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, young man, it's time to wake up
Your love affair has got to go
For ten long years
For ten long years the leaves to rake up
Slow suicide's no way to go
Slow suicide's no way to go
Wake up, wake up, wake up
