How can you see into my eyes like open doors? 00:17

Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb 00:27

Without a soul, my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold 00:38

Until you find it there and lead it back home 00:48

00:58

(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up), wake me up inside 01:04

(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark 01:10

(Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone 01:14

(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become 01:18

01:24

Now that I know what I'm without, you can't just leave me 01:28

Breathe into me and make me real, bring (bring) me (me) to life 01:37

(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up), wake me up inside 01:50

(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark 01:55

(Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone 02:01

(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become 02:05

Bring me to life 02:12

I've been livin' a lie 02:17

There's nothing inside 02:19

Bring me to life 02:21

02:27

Frozen (frozen) inside without your touch, without your love 02:30

Darling, only (only) you are the life among the dead 02:39

All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see 02:51

Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me 02:54

I've been sleeping a thousand years, it seems 02:56

Got to open my eyes to everything 02:59

Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul 03:01

Don't let me die here, there must be something more 03:03

Bring me to life 03:06

(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up), wake me up inside 03:11

(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark 03:16

(Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone 03:21

(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become 03:26

Bring me to life 03:32

I've been livin' a lie (bring me to life) 03:37

There's nothing inside 03:40

Bring me to life 03:42

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?

Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb

Without a soul, my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold

Until you find it there and lead it back home

...

(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up), wake me up inside

(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone

(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become

...

Now that I know what I'm without, you can't just leave me

Breathe into me and make me real, bring (bring) me (me) to life

(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up), wake me up inside

(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone

(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life

I've been livin' a lie

There's nothing inside

Bring me to life

...

Frozen (frozen) inside without your touch, without your love

Darling, only (only) you are the life among the dead

All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see

Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me

I've been sleeping a thousand years, it seems

Got to open my eyes to everything

Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul

Don't let me die here, there must be something more

Bring me to life

(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up), wake me up inside

(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone

(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life

I've been livin' a lie (bring me to life)

There's nothing inside

Bring me to life

...
