Wide Awake Songtext
von Howls

I know there′s nothing to fear
Cradled in its arms
Dragged out by its ears
The beast of a burdened youth
It left a scar, oh it left a bruise

I don't want to live like this
I′ve lived a thousand years in my head
Forget about your wasted words
There's no church for the disappointed

I stay awake every night to feel alive

I can't sleep every second I wait
Is a second that I′ll never get back
And I′m afraid that I'll just keep living
On alone, let the fire burn


In the end what lessons did you learn?
You never let go, you left us in the dirt
There′s nothing more that I can do
If you're second hand smoke
I′m old news

I don't want to live like this
I′ve lived a thousand years in my head
Forget about your wasted words
There's no church for the disappointed

I stay awake every night to feel alive

I can't sleep every second I wait
Is a second that I′ll never get back
And I′m afraid that I'll just keep living
On alone, let the fire burn

Save your dreams for when you′re
Wide awake
