Lyrics 

Upside down

Navigate me through this masquerade

When lights go out

Dreams they show me what I can't explain


Wake up and wake up

Windows and walkways

Somewhere I got lost

Wake up and wake up

Familiar faces

Hello can you help?

Maybe they know me

Better than I know myself


Can't control

The forward motion

Caught the current

Lost in the ocean

Paralyzed the fear leaves me frozen

Can't see beyond my emotion

Bright lights there's no end in sight

Runways paved in all eyes

They got me right where they like


Tell me what is real

Stop chasing bad habits

Tell me what is real

Follow the white rabbit


I'm stuck in a dream

They tell me what's real

My love is fading

Look around my castle started caving


Wake up and wake up

Windows & hallways

Somewhere I got lost

Wake up and wake up

Familiar faces

In my world, I am the queen

But even my own reflection keeps judging me


Can't control

The forward motion

Caught the current

Lost in the ocean

Paralyzed the fear leaves me frozen

Can't see beyond my emotion

Bright lights there's no end in sight

Runways paved in all eyes

They got me right where they like


We ain't going out like this

Us against the world we never doubt, don't miss

Switch off the lights

Feels like I'm alone on nights like this

Take flight like this


Letting yourself go has never been a question

Add a lil petrol to the fire, make your head spin

I'm a brand new phoenix

Life's got a brand meaning

Time for redeeming


I know you've been through many things

It's been a minute

Since you felt like you could spread your wings

And now you're in it


Hey there girl I know

You've been too busy crushing every obstacle

No time to take it slow


Tell me what is real

Stop chasing bad habits

Tell me what is real

Follow the white rabbit


Tell me what is real

Stop chasing bad habits

Tell me what is real

Follow the white rabbit
