Wake Me Up When Everything's Okay

When the night is too dark

And it's a long time before dawn

When the problems are too hard

When the suffering goes on and on

I wish I could close my eyes

And forget the world for a while

Let my mind rest for a bit

Give myself a chance to smile

And when I wake up again

The sun will be shining bright

It'll be a brand new day

With brand new opportunities in sight

And I'll sleep for a million years

If that's what it takes for the scars to fade away

I'll wake up when I'm ready

When I'm strong enough to get my way

Just let me rest my mind 

And wake me up when everything's okay
