Wide Awake

wide awake, wide alive 
 but i feel so dead inside
 cant shake this feeling
 i did alright, i did ok 
 breezed through the 
 rest of my day 

 all i have is night 
 all night
 darkness squeezed tight 
 every night is a fight 
 the war is raging

 come to me 
 belive in me 
 hold me close now 
 rescue me 
 free me
 don't ever let me go now

 i've been ok 
 i've been alright 
 the dawn is almost in sight 
 i look to you 
 you are my redeemer
