Sean Mark Williams - Awake Lyrics

So we're all supposed to be close
But why are my words so remote
They spill out and then it's too late
I automate myself to become fake

If only I could stay awake
If only I could stay awake
If only I could stay awake

I laugh at this speak repeatedly
We use so many words but don't say a thing
Gotta find the truth that's behind the veil
Gotta keep away this me that is so stale

If only I could stay awake
If only I could stay awake
If only I could stay awake

But sometimes I need to dream
But still I want to see
These reactions I have are not me
Just mirror images of my sleep

Yes sometimes I need to dream
But still I want to see
These reactions I have are not me
Just mirror images of my sleep

If only I could stay awake
If only I could stay awake
If only I could stay awake
