Wake Up CallA Poem by Melanie Jane Boicourt ShanksThese are lyrics to a song that I have actually performed on stage at Beetnic's Cafe in Marion, Indiana U.S.A.Hello, this is your wake-up call and it's time to open your mind. Hello, this is your wake-up call and your soul needs to unwind. Hello, this is your wake up call. Are you having a good time? Hello, this is your wake up call and it's time to open your mind.
Don't drown in your sorrow, worrying 'bout tomorrow. or all the bills you pay. Just make a better day. Don't live in the past. Just make each moment last. You can find a way to make a better day.
Be the wind. Flow through the life your're in. You can make it better, if you just believe. Be the flame. You'll never be the same. You can make it better if you just believe.
Hello, this is your wake-up call and it's time to open your mind. Hello, this is your wake-up call and your soul needs to unwind. Hello, this is your wake up call. Are you having a good time? Hello, this is your wake up call and it's time to open your mind.
Put yourself in their shoes, even if you might lose. You can understand their way, and it can make a better day. We should all of us a try, to be good to all that is alive, Then we can find a way, to make a better day.
Be the earth, and know all that you are worth. You can make it better, if you just believe. Be the stream, and play for all the team. We can make it better, if we just believe.
Hello, this is your wake up call!
