Wake Me Gently - Alice Cooper

From Alice Cooper's album "Goes to Hell".

Lyrics:
I was scared to death
Afraid to close my eyes
And find that I was gone
Like every other one
Who left before the dawn
I vanished in the air
Am I still there
Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my hand
Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cuz where I'm at
Is where I wanna leave
And in my sleep
I look so lifeless on this bed
Laid out on satin sheets
This dream's a novel
That I don't dare complete
No happy ending read
I think the hero's dead
Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my hand
Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cuz where I'm at
Is where I wanna leave
Me to my slumber

And I never come home
Please help me, I'm frightened
Of what's going on
What's going on
And if I can't wake up
Will I be all alone
A stranded orphan here
Or will I bump into
Some other wandering soul
And will talk to me
Somebody, somebody please rescue me
Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my hand
Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
'Cuz where I'm at
Is where I wanna leave
I wanna leave
I wanna leave
I wanna wake up
I wanna leave
I don't wanna stay
I wanna leave
I wanna go
I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Just wake me up
I wanna go home
Wake me up, please
'Cuz I wanna go home
Wake me
Wake me

This song is an overlooked gem. One of his best ever.

Anyone who loves Alice Cooper, loves this ENTIRE ALBUM. I HAVE BEEN listening to it since I was nine. He is Amazing. And this entire thing makes sense. To a normal rantional person. I love him, and everything he does

This album is in no way bubble gum but is a story that follows his trip. you obviously are listening to the freebie youtube in a piecemeal. Before you become a music critic, buy the cd.

@astarothsharp bubblegum is in the mouth of the beholder. this album kicks ass. I think Killer is his best work ever.
