STILL AWAKE Lyrics

Can somebody tell me why it's so hard to breathe?

Unease, I am tired, but I don't wanna sleep

Cut deep like a chelsea grin

The smile of a creep

We, we don't wanna sleep

We, we don't wanna sleep

Take a deep breath of our medicine

We're losing our minds by design

A fine line between coping and insanity

Lights out, can't see clear

Cannot walk, cannot feel

Cannot talk, it's unreal

I tried, I tried

Tried to run and hide

But these voices inside

Keep dragging me down

Cold war, cold war

Fighting battles in thought

Paralyzed to the core

So I'm left to drown

Can somebody tell me why I'm still awake?

Eight trains plaited thoughts and they're opaque

Sucker punches to my brain

I can't handle the strain

I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay

But I might go insane

And I keep recalling faith

Yeah I keep recalling faith

It's just echo in a cave

It is tainted and delayed

Yeah I keep recalling faith

I have rewritten my fate

But I'm still in the same cage

Only walls in different paint

Our hearts are pounding and hollow

Regained and let go of control

We have seen too much to feel whole

We were born to a world we can't bear alone

It's a curse, I am chained

Like I'm haunted by a wraith

And they raid me like a bank

Gun point, I'm failing to escape

Keep recalling faith

I'm locked in a cage

Block-blocked by the strain

My heart rate like on amphetamine

I tried, I tried

Tried to run and hide

But these voices inside

Keep dragging me down

Cold war, cold war

Fighting battles in thought

Paralyzed to the core

So I'm left to drown

I tried, I tried

Tried to run and hide

But these voices inside

Keep dragging me down

Cold war, cold war

Fighting battles in thought

Paralyzed to the core

So I'm left to drown
