Wake Up lyrics
by Original Broadway Cast of Lempicka
[TADEUSZ]
What is a man
Without the land
My family's for centuries?
'Til I had it taken away from me
What now can I be
Without the woods
I rode my horses in
Since I was eight years old
That land is who I am
I feel my hate rising, cold
Wake up
You lost it all
Wake up
You're alive
Wake up
This is the hard part
Wake up
You'll survive
Wake up
How can I protect her
With nothing that makes a man a man?
Nothing that I promised her
Nothing in my hands
The man she loved is gone
In his place, an empty shell
Inside his skull, a screaming hell
Why can't she give up on me
So I can give up on myself?
Wakе up
It's not a nightmare
Open your eyеs
Wake up
This is the hard part
Wake up
You'll survive
My wife, my little mouse
Stronger than I ever dreamed
How can I be the man she needs now?
Wake up
You lost it all
You're alive
This is the hard part
[TADEUSZ, spoken]
I'm here about the job. Tadeusz Lempicki
[TADEUSZ]
You'll survive
