Wide Awake

(introdução melancólica com teclas)

(Violão dedilhado)

4 in the morning, sitting here
Couldn't catch a wink of sleep
Not even a tear fell
The emptiness took hold of me
That feeling of never feeling a thing

There’s a wound inside here
And it never properly healed
I had to pick a version of myself just to get by
And I’m terrified I’ve gone and killed an innocent woman

(Música cresce, bateria entra)
Live on, live on
You’ve got to tough it out
"Stay strong," I was always told
In these sleepless nights
The pain comes back to haunt me

Always, wherever I am
I’m carrying this around with me
Always, everywhere I go
It never stops gnawing at me
Feeling nothing is worse than feeling anything at all

I wanted to confess
I wanted to tell
Sorrow, what even is it?
Sitting all on my own in a chair at the table
You don't even know what to think anymore

Live on, live on
You’ve got to tough it out
"Stay strong," I was always told
In these sleepless nights
The pain comes back to haunt me

(Riff)

I wanted to break through these walls
I wanted to get across
I’d have held your hand, if you hadn't let go of mine first
I’d have done anything for you
So why did you make me do this?
Feels like I killed an innocent woman

Live on, live on
You’ve got to tough it out
"Stay strong," I was always told
In these sleepless nights
The pain comes back to haunt me

Wide awake
Wide awake
Don't be crying

Wide awake
Wide awake
Don't go blaming yourself

Wide awake
Wide awake
Set yourself free

Wide awake
Set yourself free
