Wide Awake Lyrics by Josh Record

Pillars

2014

[Verse 1]
All of the noise inside our room
Is quiet with rage
And both of our minds are unsure
To all of these ears outside our walls
Our home is ours
Where love seemed to fill our hearts
[Pre-Chorus]
But these pictures can tell lies
And my words will still fall short
And my heart lays disguised
I'm sorry I-
[Chorus]
Never meant to make you cry
Never meant to make you love me
Now I'm wide awake with open eyes
Lost in all the love that we shared
Oh, I'm sorry that you even cared
Break these chains and walk without me
[Verse 2]
Your eyes are red
The lie was born, stole our truth
Beneath all your joy lay my despair
Behind all these clouds
There is no sun, to raise its head
The love we have left is just yours
[Pre-Chorus]
And these pictures will tell lies
And my words will still fall short
And my heart lays disguised
I'm sorry I-
[Chorus]
Never meant to make you cry
Never meant to make you love me
Now I'm wide awake with open eyes
Lost in all the love that we shared
Oh, I'm sorry that you even cared
Break these chains and walk without me
[Bridge]
All our ways were paved with gold
But built upon the sand
And we could climb above the water
And rest upon the land
It's up to you, you make the choice
Well, I can stay if you need
For our home, for your heart
[Chorus]
Never meant to make you cry
Never meant to make you love me
Now I'm wide awake with open eyes
Lost in all the love that we shared
Oh, I never meant to make you cry
Never meant to make you love me
Oh, I'm sorry that you even cared
Break these chains and walk without me
