Wake Up The House

written by Vonda Shepard and Gerard McMahon



I seem to walk on ice

Some things make me think twice

When I get that resistance

Like having freedom with my hands tied



I've censored what's inside way too long

I can't live so black and white

Somebody listen

Somebody say what's on your mind



I've got the wheels of the reckless

I'm gonna scream on the edges



Wake up the house start the clock work

Turn on the lights anybody home

Break all the glass on my windows

Wake up the house so I'm not alone

Disturb this neighborhood

Maybe it'll do some good

You know what I'm missing

When everybody's asleep at night



Somebody's got to tlak

Might as well be my job yeah

Maybe somebody's listening

You know I've censored this heart too long



I've got the wheels of the restless

I'm gonna scream on the edges



Wake up the house start the clock work

Turn on all the lights anybody home

Break all the glass on my windows

Wake up the house so I'm not alone



I can't live so black and white

You know what I'm missing

Something's making me think twice

Is anybody listening?



(Repeat Chorus)
