Wake me up or shake me up
Remind of the sanctity of life
Let your wisdom blow the kiss this time
To save my idle heart before it bites
Oh, I was the diamond in the rough
I took some hard hits to make me tough
And every single rock can be refined
But once that I was cut then I could shine
Wake me up or shake me up
Remind me of the sanctity of life
Oh, I cannot see peace in this place I've found
Where tears don't seem to end
Me and my strife
Oh, I was the diamond in the rough
I took some hard hits to make me tough
And every single rock can be refined
But once that I was cut then I could shine
Hold me to the blue
Show me something new
Control my desire
Hold me in the fire
Oh, I was the diamond in the rough
I took some hard hits to make me tough
And every single rock can be refined
But once that I was cut then I could shine
