Stay Awake

STAY AWAKE

I was so close, maybe too close to see a way to keep myself awake
But I was too close just to say no and refuse
The fact of falling and turning into nothing
It was so hard to keep open my eyes and keep looking at their faces and hear them cry
It was so easy to let it go like that
Just acting like I wasn’t there

Sometimes a feeling could save your life
Sometimes a feeling could save you

I was so far from all my fears and pain
Relieved, safe, lost in that place
I was too far to hear them calling my name
Touching my hands they would never understand
It was so clear, they couldn’t see in my eyes
All the reasons why I would not even try
It was so easy to let it go like that just acting like I wasn’t there

Sometimes a feeling could save your life
Sometimes a feeling could save you

Stay awake
