Hilda x Don Diablo - Wake Me When It's Quiet | Lyric Video
Stream & download song: http://www.tinyurl.com/HildaDonDiablo
A little bit over a week ago a friend of mine sent me a vocal demo of a Swedish singer songwriter named "Hilda". She'd written a song the day after the passing of Avicii. When I listened to the demo the first time it touched me deeply in so many ways. As artists the best way to express our emotions is through music so I immediately asked if I could make music to accompany the vocal and turn the idea into an actual song. I locked myself up in the studio the next day and was determined to walk out with something magical that would do justice to the sincere message of the vocal and the incredible talent of HILDA. I truly felt this song needed to get heard. So many people are struggling with mental health problems and we have to make sure to never turn a blind eye to this...
All the royalties of this song will be donated to the Swedish charity, Tilia ( http://www.foreningentilia.se ) and other charities devoted to mental health issues. Always remember: we are in this TOGETHER. Love you guys,

Lyrics:
Never enough
You will always find those days when it’s rough
But you need to feel existent
Keep it real and be persistent
No one can win
If you wake up, tryna get out of your skin
You’re the one you have to live with
Slow it down don’t overthink it
There are people that won’t accept a no from you
There are those who won’t see you as a person, just success
Don’t give in if you feel that it’s not right for you
Don’t ya do it
It’s tough to play the part in somebody’s show
A no is always no - don’t try to convince me
It’s hard to face the world
When words are left unheard
Wake me when it’s quiet
On a better day
Just wake me up x3
Wake me when it’s quiet
Pushing the edge
Just to give your crowd a smile on their face
There are levels of emotions
Just don’t let it get you over
There are people that will accept a no from you
There are thousands who’ll see you as a person, not success
Don’t give in if you feel that it’s not right for you
Don’t ya do it
Chorus
It’s tough to play the part in somebody’s show
A no is always no - don’t try to convince me
It’s hard to face the world
When words are left unheard
Wake me up when it’s quiet
On a better day
Just wake me up x3
Wake me when it’s quiet
Chorus
It’s tough to play the part in somebody’s show
A no is always no - don’t try to convince me
It’s hard to face the world
When words are left unheard
Wake me up when it’s quiet
