Wide awake (Billboard Music Award 2012)

Wide Awake

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I was in the dark

I was falling hard

With an open heart

I'm wide awake

How did I read the stars so wrong


I'm wide awake

And now it's clear to me

That everything you see

Ain't always what it seems

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I was dreaming for so long


Pre-Chorus:

I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on

On the concrete


Chorus:

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight

(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9


I'm wide awake

Not losing any sleep

I picked up every piece

And landed on my feet

I'm wide awake

Need nothing to complete myself - nooohooo


I'm wide awake

Yeah, I am born again

Outta the lion's den

I don't have to pretend

And it's too late

The story's over now, the end


Pre-Chorus:

I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on

On the concrete


Chorus:

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight

(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9


Thunder rumbling

Castles crumbling

I am trying to hold on

God knows that I tried

Seeing the bright side

I'm not blind anymore.....I'm wide awake


Chorus:

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight

(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9


(Oh now I'm) Falling from cloud 9

It was outta the blue, I'm

Crashing from the high

(Yeah) I'm letting go tonight

Letting go of illusion

(Now I'm) Falling from cloud 9
