Wide Awake

I'm wide awake this time Our love's a clever crime Running on the stairs of heaven Sometimes, I wish I feel alive again I'm wide awake again in your awfully bizarre shoes I wish I can feel alive this time It's hard to even fathom your problematic issues Our love's an extra mile crime An extra mile crime I'm wide awake I'm about to break Save me from your shadows beneath How do I lift up the vicious lion's teeth? If only you would save me, my dear We wander our own way 'round here I'm stuck in place in front of your face While you're free in space in life's race In vast grace… Untie life's shoelace I'm wide awake again in your awfully bizarre shoes I wish I can feel alive this time It's hard to even fathom your problematic issues Our love's an extra mile crime An extra mile crime I'm wide awake I'm about to break Save me from your shadows beneath How do I lift up the vicious lion's teeth? It's hard to express myself completely In a rhyme all by myself effortlessly Walking on the airborne edge for a while Many times, I told you to run that extra mile I'm wide awake again in your awfully bizarre shoes I wish I can feel alive this time It's hard to even fathom your problematic issues Our love's an extra mile crime An extra mile crime I'm wide awake I'm about to break Save me from your shadows beneath How do I lift up the vicious lion's teeth? If only I could relive the past and future prosperity Me and you just can't get along like we used to simply I'm sheltering you from the inner storm that whirls violently once more You ignore my helping hand and left my young heart tattered and sore I'm wide awake again in your awfully bizarre shoes I wish I can feel alive this time It's hard to even fathom your problematic issues Our love's an extra mile crime An extra mile crime I'm wide awake I'm about to break Save me from your shadows beneath How do I lift up the vicious lion's teeth? I'm wide awake and alone once again, Running upon the long stairs of heaven I wish to feel alive in your arms sometimes I hope to make it on time before the bell chimes
