Wide Awake

(album: Rockabye - 2023)

The girl will wake and set out on a journey
O'er the mountains and rivers and lakes
And though her ankles and soles are burning
She longs for adventure, she aches

The road is treacherous, perilous even
But she has faith, she will make it alive
She prays to a god that she doesn't believe in
In hopes her resolve will revive

Somebody fucked up, you're doomed, you're dead
What on earth could have gone through your dumb heads
Good luck, cause now I'm wide awake
The universe dripping at the seams

I'm aware now, but what a crazy dream
Whatever, now I'm wide awake

Time is dead and so is fate and destiny
The only thing that's real is nothingness and me
Look around you, there is nothing left to see
Everybody better get down on your knees, you better pray
Quickly pray to me

You followed this path, it led you here
But you took a wrong turn somewhere, I fear
Good morning, now I'm wide awake

Unlucky or stupid, which are you
By your faces, I think I have a clue
You're stupid, now I'm wide awake

Time is dead and so is fate and destiny
The only thing that's real is nothingness and me
Look around you, there is nothing left to see
Everybody better get down on your knees, you better pray
Quickly pray for my mercy

Oh, tell me just how you'll get out of this little situation
You might as well sit back, relax, think of it as your vacation
The only way to stay sane in this place

Play with me

I'm sorry you're stuck and you can't sleep
But it's nice to finally have some company
Nice to meet ya, I am wide awake

Your story is done, it ends right here
Say goodbye to your life and your career
Sorry, now I'm wide awake

Wide awake
Wide awake
Wide awake
Wide awake
