Awake

Started a fire, yeah I started a fire
Never feel tired, pretend my problems aren't dire
Staying awake, staying awake
I don't really know if I'm okay
Started a fire, yeah I started a fire
The ceiling gets higher the more I burn my desires
Fading away, fading away
I don't really know what is left to say

Yeah I ignore all the toxic
Your hearts not lost it’s
Just a little broken and bruised
You don’t have to lie, yeah I know it hurts you
I'd hate the cynic, but his views not wrong
Tell the devil he won't have to wait too long
I've seen them selfish to the bone
Egos too large for them to atone

Started a fire, yeah I started a fire
Never feel tired, pretend my problems aren't dire
Staying awake, staying awake
I don't really know if I'm okay
Started a fire, yeah I started a fire
The ceiling gets higher the more I burn my desires
Fading away, fading away
I don't really know what is left to say

You're so sick of it
I wouldn't think of fitting in if I was you
I'd just tell the truth
Don't associate, they're all just playing games
You're better off staying alone away from pain
The more that you think
The less that you feel
I'm starting to believe
That your feelings weren't real
Staying awake, fading away
Darling I can't promise that it'll all be okay
Start back from the top now
Do you really want the stars or to fall down?
We're getting closer to the fallout

And I can’t save you
I can’t save you

I know it wouldn't work, but I forgive your words
I don’t want to fight bad decisions
Living for my sadder visions
Pretend that you’re stable
But don’t run from pain and pretend you’re not responsible
Yeah, when your eyes glow like scarlet
I feel myself going slowly to the darkness
Yeah, you should really kill the cynic
He’s been pulling strings from the very beginning
I’m too tired to play your games
The light in my eyes wouldn’t keep me awake
