Stay Awake Lyrics

[Intro]
(If we don't, if we don't, if we don't…)

[Hook]
If we don't kill ourselves, we'll be the leaders of a messed up generation
If we don't kid ourselves, will they believe us if we tell them the reasons why
Did we take it too far, take it too far
Did we chase the rabbit into wonderland
Lose a hundred grand, will they understand
It was all to stay awake for the longest

[Verse]
March on, always after us
Lost troops, half the class of us
You man ain't seen the last of us
Stick around, yeah like elastoplast
Not half-mast, raise the flag
Kick the sand
To let you know that we're coming and we're nasty man
Don't need sleeping beauty
No, it's what you do to me
Come midnight and daybreak
Yes please gotta find me a namesake
We got faith but don't need bibles
Take the Michael, hear my recital
I hold the title, quite vital
We get high on the opposite of nital

[Link]
It was all to stay awake for the longest time
It was wrong, it was wrong, but it felt so right
See you at the finish line, see you at the finish line
If you've got the heart to join us

[Hook]
If we don't kill ourselves, we'll be the leaders of a messed up generation
If we don't kid ourselves, will they believe us if we tell them the reasons why
Did we take it too far, take it too far
Did we chase the rabbit into wonderland
Lose a hundred grand, will they understand
It was all to stay awake for the longest

[Verse]
March on, always after us
Lost troops, half the class of us
You man ain't seen the last of us
Stick around, yeah like elastoplast
Not half-mast, raise the flag
Kick the sand
To let you know that we're coming and we're nasty man
Don't need sleeping beauty
No, it's what you do to me
Come midnight and daybreak
Yes please gotta find me a namesake
We got faith but don't need bibles
Take the Michael, hear my recital
I hold the title, quite vital
We get high on the opposite of nital

[Bridge]
We just grow, if it's late
Then we'll show, we don't wait
We just grow, if you hate
We don't show, we don't wait
We just grow, if it's late
Then we'll show, we don't wait
We just grow

[Hook]
If we don't kill ourselves, we'll be the leaders of a messed up generation
If we don't kid ourselves, will they believe us if we tell them the reasons why
Did we take it too far, take it too far
Did we chase the rabbit into wonderland
Lose a hundred grand, will they understand
It was all to stay awake for the longest
