Stay Awake?

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Stop the world, I want to get off

Lucid dreams, I can't get enough

Give me the future

Give me confidence

Give me

Cyber love

In an anxious age

Lord above

Need to get me laid

Had a taste

Of euphoria

Who could blame

Me for wanting more?

Just give me passion, give me violence

Give me confidence

Give me something new to feel, uh

Now us freaks and geeks can rule thе world, have everything

Doеsn't matter if it's real

In my head, in my head

I escape with you

When my dreams run away

Run away with you

Why would I stay awake, stay awake?

Why would I stay awake, stay awake?

Share our souls

On the internet

Total recall

All the dumb regrets

Breaking hearts in a brand new way

Same, old humans

Making new mistakes

Just give me passion, give me violence

Give me confidence

Give me something new to feel, uh

And now us freaks and geeks can rule the world, have everything

Doesn't matter if it's real

In my head, in my head

I escape with you

When my dreams run away

Run away with you

Why would I stay awake, stay awake?

Why would I stay awake, stay awake?

Why would I stay awake, stay awake?

Why would I stay awake, stay awake, stay awake?

Stop the world, I wanna get off

Lucid dreams, I can't get enough

Stop the world, I wanna get off

Lucid dreams, I can't get enough

Stop the world, I wanna get off

Lucid dreams, I can't get enough

Stop the world, I wanna get off

Lucid dreams, I can't get enough

Stop the world, I wanna get off

Lucid dreams, I can't get enough

Can't get enough

In my head, in my head

I escape with you

When my dreams run away

Run away with you

Why would I stay awake, stay awake?

Why would I stay awake, stay awake?

Why would I stay awake, stay awake?

Why would I stay awake, stay awake, stay awake?
