lyrics

Awake

Tonight girl, you got me thinking
I haven’t slept in 3 long days
What if this isn’t a phase?
It’s more like a drug
The more I take in the more I’m fucked up
If I wrote you a letter instead of this song would you care for me more?

Hope you don’t think I’m a joke
Our reality is simply fake
All is fine until you pinch me
Then I’m awake
No one knows what the future holds
Live for the present I’ve been told
As if it was a steady state

Great! Now I’m hooked on all things I used to hate
Hate, writing songs about the future and our fate
Fate, we’re both human, our delusions are in play
Play, I can stand by for as long as it’ll take.

When I spoke my mind that winter night
You took it all in, you didn’t put up a fight
Are things meant to be, we’ll wait and see
But for now let’s just live comfortably
In knowing what we have is for real
Who gives a shit what others might feel!
