Wide Awake Lyrics by Kenna

Make Sure They See My Face

2007

I can't speak
And I can't breathe
And no words are comin out of me
I can't tell if I'm upside down
Or if I'm just goin round and round
I trap myself in idioms
With the battles raging in my head
I can't tell if I'm fallin in
Or if I'm just climbin up again

Hey man
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm wide awake man
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm wide awake man

I'm so anxious
I packed my head in a paper bag
To quell my nerves
Have I lost all my urgency
Or can I be part of history
You say I hide in my dreams
So I tell myself
Don't sleep don't sleep don't sleep don't sleep don't sleep don't
Sleep save all your energy to say

Hey man
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm wide awake man
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm wide awake man
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm wide awake man
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm wide awake man

Open
Open your up your mind now
Open up the sky now
Come on and fly now
Hey hey
Open your up your mind now
Open up wide now
Come on let me in now
Yeah
Open
Open and fly now
Come on and try now
Come on and try now
Hey hey hey hey
