Wake Up Call Lyrics

We met when we were young
I told you where to go
You had those creepers on
You showed me how to roll
Step out, this town
Has nothing that I wanna know

These hearts are wireless
This ain't no crowd control
These thoughts are violent
They murder rock and roll
Slow down, fade out
That's not how I wanna go

Sometimes we never get started
No one will give you a wake-up call
Sometimes the hours are wasted
No one will give you a wake-up call

We need another rush
Something to fill our days
It lies in wait for us
It lives on empty space
Slow down, fade out
That's not how I wanna go, oh, oh, oh

Sometimes you never get started
No one will give you a wake-up call
Sometimes the hours are wasted
No one will give you a wake-up call

Call, oh, oh, oh

Sometimes you never get started
No one will give you a wake-up call
Sometimes the hours are wasted
No one will give you a wake-up call

What is the Meaning of Wake Up Call?

Ah, the age-old struggle of youth and ambition wrapped in a catchy tune! This song is the anthem for all those dreamers stuck in the mundane grind. Our protagonists meet young, full of rebellious energy and questionable fashion choices (creepers, anyone?). They crave more than their sleepy town offers—no crowd control or rock 'n' roll murders here! The lyrics scream frustration at life's inertia and the lack of that proverbial "wake-up call" to jolt them into action. They're not content to fade out slowly; they want a rush, something to fill their days with meaning. It's a rallying cry against wasted hours and unfulfilled potential. So, if you're feeling stuck, let this be your musical nudge to get moving—because no one's handing out wake-up calls for free!
