Stay Awake Lyrics

Dishwalla

Staring at the wall because you know it understands
And boy you wonder about everything that could have been
Its getting later all the time but youre still wide awake
And boy you wonder, if youll ever sleep again
Hey, hey, gotta stay awake
Dont let it slip away
Dont think that theyre not waiting
Hey, hey, gotta stay awake
As your mind is peeled away
But they still seem to find you anyway
Sift your hands through broken glass
Through your shattered crystal ball and boy you wonder
If youll ever see again
Cause every time you close your eyes
You know theyre right behind you and you wonder
If youll ever live again
Donut make a sound cause theyre living all around
With their shiny eyes and their shiny minds
And theyre living everywhere
Watching every move I make
Gotta stay awake
