"Almost Awake" lyrics

"Almost Awake"

I wake up the same way every morning
Three minutes before the alarm
Like clockwork, persuading myself
To just ignore what I'm afraid of

All the talking in my head
All the words that I wish I would've said
Every line keeps highlighting mistakes
I'm tired of it

So keep me awake
So keep me awake
So keep me awake
Keep me awake

Well, I saw it, a version of who I used to be
Wide-eyed with undying belief
Now I'm black and blue till I fall asleep

But I'm so grateful
That life is always knocking on my door
When I'm scared, replacing windows with bars
Try to drown inside the sorrow till I sleep
That was never me

So keep me awake
So keep me awake
So keep me awake
So keep me awake
Keep me awake
Try to keep me away

Keep me awake
I'll let your voice ring louder than the pain
Won't focus on who to blame
Or waste the light in my day
Keep me awake
Let your voice ring louder than the pain
Don't focus on who to blame
Or waste the light in my day
I'm wide awake

Let your voice ring louder than the pain
Don't focus on who to blame
Or waste the light in my day
I'm wide awake
Let your voice ring louder than the pain
Don't focus on who to blame
Or waste the light in my day
I'm wide awake
Let your voice ring louder than the pain
Don't focus on who to blame
Or waste the light in my day
I'm wide awake

I wake up the same way every morning
Three minutes before the alarm
