Lyrics
When I Wake
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.
I've come to know that secrets don't exist at all
It goes to show how high we climb just to fall
And I've tried with all my mind just to keep inside the lines
But something within me is beginning to show
Because I still don't sleep
Because my dreams get the best of me
And when I wake up
How I wish that it all was gone
Now take it back, when curiosity killed the boy
From seeing that skin, the shores of youth no deploy
And I try with all I can just to be a better man
The truth is that I can't do it on my own
Because I still don't sleep
Because my dreams get the best of me
And when I wake up
How I wish that it all was gone
Cause you are the peace I need through every sleepless night
The constant in the change, the only hope I have in me
Awake now, is this where I'll always be?
So anxious and impatient, without you I still don't sleep
Because it all gets the best of me
And when I wake up how I wish that it all was gone
How I wish that it all was gone
How I wish that it all was gone
How I wish that it all was gone
How I wish that you were gone
How I wish that you were gone
