Wake up, put it down and let it go
Chin up, morning's here and sun is low
Somewhere flying on a paper kite
Tied on, looking down afraid of heights

Feel a cold rush right down my neck
Into my stomach and back up my head
When the knot is too tight it might hold on all night
Watching the walls just hoping they don't ignite

I know it's a demon in my own ear
Saying wait 'til the day comes
When you see your own worst fear

Wake up, put it down and let it go
Chin up, morning's here and sun is low
Somewhere buried in the snow and ice
Left my only jacket that was nice
And it's all gonna be alright

Told myself to regret nothing that I've done
But I'm lying awake and I feel it in my gut
I can see with my eyes not a thing will suffice
No matter how hard you try you'll still pay the price

I know it's a demon in my own ear
Saying wait 'til the day comes
When you see your fears
'Cause they could all come true
When you weren't prepared
And you wouldn't react in time
'Cause you were too scared

Wake up, put it down and let it go
Chin up, morning's here and sun is low
Somewhere in a river running dry
I'll be floating down and feeling fine
And It's all gonna alright
