Awake

Don't waste your time

Don't waste a minute

Believing in these wishful dreams

It never fit us well

And what at first was hard to tell

Became the sickness that directs me now

It's okay if you're awake when I come home

'Cause I need you to know

That every night I lie in bed

Trying hard to clear my head

And I pray that you see me

And how I look at you

When we are not together

And you'll never

Say the only words you could

To save yourself

Maybe you'll thank me when it's over

And maybe you'll never forgive me

We tell no lies

But secretly we hide

The silent truth of what could never be

It's okay if you're awake when I come home

'Cause I need you to know

That every night I lie in bed

Trying hard to clear my head

And I pray that you see me

And how I look at you

When we are not together

And you'll never

Say the only words you could

To save yourself
