The Chainsmokers’ 2016 smash “Closer” spent 32 weeks in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100. Their debut album Memories… Do Not Open, did not include “Closer,” but it featured a wide array of guest artists, including Coldplay, Florida Georgia Line, and Jhene Aiko.
Aiko is featured on “Wake Up Alone,” a pop song with an EDM structure: verse, build-up, and the instrumental-fueled drop. The song is about how success and material wealth cannot protect Aiko from her fear of being alone.
The Chainsmokers – Wake Up Alone (ft. Jhene Aiko) (prod. DJ Swivel & The Chainsmokers)
[Verse 1]
Now I got cars, now I got clothes, now I got money
Now I got crowds screamin’ my name sayin’ they love me
You get real close, say I’m not alone, you understand me
But late at night, when I close my eyes, the quiet scares me
[Pre-Chorus]
Will you still care in the morning?
When the magic’s gone, gone, oh?
And will you be there in the morning?
Do you stay when it all goes?
Or will I wake up alone?
[Chorus]
Wake up alone
Wake up alone
[Verse 2]
I don’t need cars, I don’t need clothes, forget that money
‘Cause if I go home all on my own, it ain’t worth nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
Will you still care in the morning?
When the magic’s gone, gone, oh?
And will you be there in the morning?
Do you stay when it all goes?
Or will I wake up alone?
[Chorus]
Wake up alone
Wake up alone
Wake up alone
Wake up alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Will you still care in the morning?
When the magic’s gone, gone, oh?
And will you be there in the morning?
Do you stay when it all goes?
Or will I wake up alone?
[Chorus]
Wake up alone
Wake up alone
Wake up alone
Or will I wake up alone?
