I toil in silence, don't know where my mind is
Numb from the shock of it all
Cut myself open, but I wasn't broken
Tried to fix what wasn't wrong
Can you feel it taking over? I know I'm not alone
If I must go, the waves should drag me out
When every lie was kept so close
Burned by the game for what I chose
Now you're tossing and turning
I'm pulling the plug on the dream
'Cause the end of you is the start of life for me
How was I to know?
Crystalline castles turned to dust in the palm of your hand
But I'm wide awake this time
Burn it down to find nothing inside
Can you feel it taking over? (Feel it taking over)
I feel it creeping in (I feel it creeping in)
I'm back at the edge again (ayy)
When every lie was kept so close
Burned by the game for what I chose (what I chose)
Now you're tossing and turning
I'm pulling the plug on the dream
'Cause the end of you is the start of life for me
The start of life for me
My innocence was blind, now I can finally see (oh-oh-oh)
The start of life for me
You make me feel so wide awake for good this time
You are an echo of a dream as it fades from my mind (mind, mind, mind, mind)
Wide awake for good this time
I can finally let go of the shame as I claim my new life
Sung from a fractured lullaby
Innocence draining from our eyes
All I wanted was stolen
I hate all that I believed
Oh-oh (oh-oh), (I'm wide awake for good this time)
Oh-oh (oh-oh), (wide awake for good this time)
You're tossing and turning
I'm pulling the plug on the dream
'Cause the end of you is the start of life for me
