Lyrics Night/Day - Mae

Night/Day

I’ve been dreaming such a long time
And I’ve been waiting for the sunshine
But all my friends they say I’m getting by
With sleeping in
They say I’m sleeping in
You know whenever I try I want to get it right
But I distract my focus and blur my own sight
'Cause I’ve convinced myself that
My best can only come in the moonlight
And I keep sleeping in
I keep on sleeping in and missing something
Close your eyes before the daylight breaks
There are things about me I just can’t ignore
I know I want to change when I see that door
On the other side, daylight decides there will be war
With sleeping in
Oh, I know there’ll be no more sleeping in, yeah
I wait, I wait, I wait only in jest
I wait, I wait, I wait with no need to rest, I wait
«The day, the day, the day will come again,» I say
A ray of light can only get in if I say
I’ve been putting off this purification
A rebirth and regeneration inside of me
And I’ve been saying no for far too long
Even though something brand new is coming out of me
I’m going to wake up, wake up every morning
And then decide
I’m going to wake up, wake up every morning
And make it mine
Rain or shine
I wake, I wake, I wake and greet the day
The light is all the change is made I can see my way
The day, the day, this day is come again
Each ray of light will make its way into the core of me
I always knew I was missing something
I know this time I will leave nothing up to chance
And in the wake of this brand new day
I see the light and I feel the sun
And I’ll do it all again tomorrow
I’m going to wake up, wake up every morning
And then decide
I’m going to wake up, wake up every morning
And make it mine
