all  alone again
he  woke up screaming  here
he  needs more oxygen  to breathe
 help  him up  hold him down
 like  a freight train
it's  bearing down  again
he's  got holy water  in his lungs
 help him up
if  that's how it's gonna be
wake  me up wake  me up
pump  me full of meds
don't  let me drink  from that cup
slide  a little pill  down my throat
 i'll  try to keep it down
or  pull my plug and don't be frightened  by the sound
 Pre-verse
seventy  and ten
outlived  the best  of men
he  wants to see  his little kids  again
help  him up
but  in all his  years
the  pain's never been  this severe
now  he's spiraling  in fear
hold  him down
if  that's how it's gonna be
wake  me up wake  me up
pump  me full of meds
don't  let me drink  from that cup
slide  a little pill  down my throat
 i'll  try to keep it down
or  pull my plug and don't be frightened  by the sound
if  that's how it's gonna be
wake  me up wake  me up
pump  me full of meds
don't  let me drink  from that cup
slide  a little pill  down my throat
 i'll  try to keep it down
or  pull my plug and don't be frightened  by the sound
or  pull my plug and don't be frightened  by the sound
