[Intro] [Pre-Chorus] I wish someone would wake me ’Cause I can’t sleep at all Stuck in purgatory Waiting for the fall Auditioned all the endings I find it hard to tell Is it better to serve in heaven Or better to reign in hell? [Pre-Verse] [Verse 1] Say my name And watch the fire grow Curse my name A demon gets its horns See my face The one behind my eyes I’m a son of a bitch I’m as bad as it gets And I’ll be that till I die [Pre-Chorus] I wish someone would wake me ’Cause I can’t sleep at all Stuck in purgatory Waiting for the fall Auditioned all the endings I find it hard to tell Is it better to serve in heaven Or better to reign in hell? [Chorus] You’ve never known pain before Cain before But I’m gonna show you You’ve never been drained before Shamed before But I’d love to share You’ve never known insane before Deranged before I’m here to show you I owe you nothing [Pre-Verse] [Verse 2] Feel my pain (Pain) I bet you can’t relate Know my rage (Rage) The one you instigate Hate this place (Place) The one in which you hide The devil I know or the devil I don’t I just can’t pick a side [Pre-Chorus] I wish someone would wake me ’Cause I can’t sleep at all Stuck in purgatory Waiting for the fall Auditioned all the endings I find it hard to tell Is it better to serve in heaven Or better to reign in hell? [Chorus] You’ve never known pain before Cain before But I’m gonna show you You’ve never been drained before Shamed before But I’d love to share You’ve never known insane before Deranged before I’m here to show you I owe you nothing [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Bridge] [Bridge] I wish someone would wake me Wake me up wake me up up I wish someone would wake me Wake me up wake me up up I wish someone would wake me Wake me up wake me up up I wish someone would wake me Wake me up wake me up up [Chorus] You’ve never known pain before Cain before But I’m gonna show you You’ve never been drained before Shamed before But I’d love to share You’ve never known insane before Deranged before I’m here to show you I-owe-you-absolutely nothing I-owe-you-nothing [Outro]

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque des thèmes de lutte intérieure et d’angoisse, se traduisant par un sentiment d’être coincé entre le bien et le mal, presque comme dans un purgatoire. Elle parle d’un désir d’éveil, tant sur le plan émotionnel que spirituel, tout en questionnant la valeur de servir une autorité supérieure par rapport à celle de gouverner dans le désordre. L’artiste exprime un profond ressentiment, une colère face à une réalité qu'il ne supporte plus, et remet en question les conventions morales qui définissent notre existence. Dans cette lutte éthique, on ressent une tension entre la douleur et la rage, comme si l’artiste voulait que l’on prenne conscience de la souffrance humaine qui l’entoure, tout en affirmant son indépendance face aux attentes des autres. C’est une confrontation brute avec soi-même et avec les démons personnels que chacun pourrait porter.
