These will be the years The lights will all appear But now they're mine The sun hits like a bullet of faith And then suddenly I'm wide awake Fake bliss, our apologies made Was an enemy with no escape My hands were tied

I'm wide awake Falling from cloud nine Crashing from the high I'm letting go tonight I'm falling from cloud nine I wish I knew then What I know now Wouldn't dive in Wouldn't bow down

In the murder city But not hopeless I feel so useless But not helpless The clock strikes midnight We are the last call And it's too pathetic I'm wide awake

These will be the years The lights will all appear But now they're mine The sun hits like a bullet of faith And then suddenly I'm wide awake Fake bliss, our apologies made Was an enemy with no escape My hands were tied So grab on to desire and run away

I'm wide awake I'm wide awake and I'm goin' crazy Now honey how 'bout you? Girl I know it's late for me to be callin' But what else was I gonna do I woke up with a heart full of love And no one around to give it to It's just me here staring up at the

To make you feel safe from me Tonight I'm sleeping wide awake I can't promise we'll be okay But I'll keep fighting 'til the end I made the darkness sleep again To flee the creatures from this land We're now safe but I can't forget Oh, hard a fear

That could still be us Wish I could say it don't get to me but it does And I know I probably think about you way too much But that's because And it still is sometimes at night when my eyes are shut Wide awake staring at my phone Who's gonna give in
