Stay Awake

STAY AWAKE

Stay
Stay awake
Open your eyes and dream with me

And you know we
We don't need the light
You and I like fireflies
We do better in the night

In a perfect world my mind would swirl
With ways to bring it down
I need it to hurt, need it to burn
Need it to burn

Once we had a dream
We once had a dream
This dream is all that I can see
All that I can think about
And now I keep it close to me

Do you ever think
Do you ever think
About the things that could have been
Do you ever dream like I do?
Do you keep it close to you
Do you keep it close to you?

I, I don't mind being in the shade
If I'm in the shadow of
Something big and beautiful

And leaves brown and dry
Doesn't mean time's running out
Doesn't mean the tree will die

In a perfect world my mind would swirl
With ways to bring it down
I need it to hurt, need it to burn
Need it to burn

Once we had a dream
We once had a dream
This dream is all that I can see
All that I can think about
And now I keep it close to me

Do you ever think
Do you ever think
About the things that could have been
Do you ever dream like I do?
Do you keep it close to you
Do you keep it close to you?
