Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wake up, young man
It's time to wake up
Your love affair has got to go
For ten long years
[Verse 2]
For ten long years
The leaves to rake up
Slow suicide's no way to go
Oh, oh
[Verse 3]
Blue, clouded gray
You're not a crack-up
Dizzy and weakened by the haze
Movin' onward
[Verse 4]
So an infection, not a phase
Yeah
[Verse 5]
The cracks and lines from where you gave up
They make an easy man to read
Oh, oh
[Verse 6]
For all the times you let them bleed you
For a little peace from God you plead
And beg
[Verse 7]
For a little peace from God you plead
Oh, oh, yeah, oh
Oh, oh, yeah, oh
Oh, oh, yeah, oh
[Verse 8]
Wake up, young man
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up
Oh, yeah, yeah
[Verse 9]
Wake up, young man
It's time to wake up
Your love affair has got to go, yeah
For ten long years
[Verse 10]
For ten long years
The leaves to rake up
Slow suicide's no way to go
Oh, oh
[Verse 11]
Slow suicide's no way to go
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Wake up
