Waking Up Is Hard to Do (A parody inspired by a classic 1960s pop tune)

Verse 1 Don’t take the blue pill from me, darling Don’t keep me sleeping in the dark, dear If you knew the things I’ve seen online You would question every headline

Pre-Chorus I trusted all they said was true Now I don’t know what to do

Chorus Waking up is hard to do They hide the facts from me and you Once you see behind the view Oh, waking up is hard to do

Verse 2 I used to think it all made sense, baby Now every story feels intense, baby Every “truth” they sell today Makes me want to look away

Pre-Chorus I read between each loaded line Now I question every sign

Chorus Waking up is hard to do They spin the world with something new When the curtain’s pulled in two Oh, waking up is hard to do

Bridge They said “Relax, don’t ask too much” But silence never felt like trust So I kept digging through the night Searching shadows for the light

Verse 3 Now my friends all roll their eyes, darling When I mention strange replies, darling But once the pieces start to fit You can’t unsee any of it

Final Chorus Waking up is hard to do When old beliefs no longer glue Still I’d rather face what’s true ’Cause waking up is hard to do

Outro Yeah, waking up is hard... to do.
