Waking is track eleven on the 2016 James album Girl At The End Of The World.
Tim said of the song in an interview with Even The Stars “Waking, which isn’t a traditional James song, has a lot of room for trumpet to have fun, there’s a lot of joy in the music, it’s very uplifting”

Suffer the children
Who question every value
Ask awkward questions
Programmed to machine
We have a blueprint
This suit don't fit, we've split the seam
Thoughts are contagious
We're thinking the same way
Lies
Lies that almost choke us
Lies that almost broke us
Brothers sisters
We've been fooled
They don't want us too fulfilled
Just enough to pay your bills
Entertainment
Dog whistle views
We are schooled
To follow the rules
Beliefs define us
See the world the way
We believe
This mirror drives us
We can't get out the way
Lies
Lies that almost choke us
Lies that almost broke us
Brothers sisters
We've been fooled
They don't want us too fulfilled
Just enough to pay your bills
Entertainment
Dog whistle views
We are schooled
To follow the rules
Who question every value
Ask awkward questions
Programmed to machine
We have a blueprint
This suit don't fit, we've split the seam
Thoughts are contagious
We're thinking the same way
Lies
Lies that almost choke us
Lies that almost broke us
Brothers sisters
We've been fooled
They don't want us too fulfilled
Just enough to pay your bills

We are schooled
To follow the rules
Beliefs define us
See the world the way

Brothers sisters
We've been fooled
They don't want us too fulfilled
Just enough to pay your bills

We are schooled
To follow the rules
