Lyrics Poets of the Fall

Poets of the Fall

Dreaming Wide Awake

Too late, the melody is over. The joke seems to

Be on me, 'cause I’m the one not laughing down here on the floor

Deflate the mystery of living in the most

heartless fashion I could ever imagine.

No pretending on decor

Another place and time, without a great divide

And we could be flying deadly high

I’ll sell my soul to dream you wide awake

Another place and time, without a warning sign

And we could be dying angels high

I’ll sell my soul to dream you wide awake

I’ll dream you, I’ll dream you, I’ll dream you wide awake

With me disaster finds a playfield

Love seems to draw dark twisted pleasure tearing at me

Cause I can't let you go

Mercy, like water in the desert

Shines through my memory like jewelry in the sun

Where are you now?

Another place and time, without a great divide

And we could be flying deadly high

I’ll sell my soul to dream you wide awake

Another place and time, without a warning sign

And we could be dying angels high

I’ll sell my soul to dream you wide awake

I’ll dream you, I’ll dream you, I’ll dream you wide awake

It’s like I’m raising to the sun

The lying face, the blazing gun

Cause I’m afraid I will be left here without you

Like I’m raising up the moon

You give me more when I have none

Cause I’m afraid I will be left here without you

Wide awake, wide awake…

Another place and time, without a great divide

And we could be flying deadly high

I’ll sell my soul to dream you wide awake

Another place and time, without a warning sign

And we could be dying angels high

I’ll sell my soul to dream you wide awake

I’ll dream you, I’ll dream you, I’ll dream you wide awake
