Wide Awake at Midnight
guitar chords lyrics
Change the right to sleep
For the right to lie
When you’re in too deep
Dark-adapted eye
You’re a runaway
And a loser gone wild
Staring up a way (up a way)
To the day and the sun
You’re a runaway (runaway)
And a loser gone wild
Better ride alone
Past the empty lights
Claim the dark my own
See the empty sights
You’re a runaway
Claim the dark my own
See the empty sights
You’re a runaway
And a loser gone wild
Staring up a way (up a way)
To the day and the sun
You’re a runaway (runaway)
And a loser gone wild
Cursing the day
Cursing the moonlit night
Watching the sky
Praying for something bright
Tiredness is gone,
Dancing is all around
What have I done? Why am I here?
Food for the feast
Wine for the thirsty eyes
Teeth in the flesh,
Don’t heed the lies
I think I’m lost inside your eyes
You pet me like a fool
You’re glad and laughing all the time
The terror that is you
You are tired of me, I’m tired of wasting time.
For me – it’s a prison of gold
For you – a water garden
Me – it’s a truth to be told
You – I beg your pardon
To know your friends
Are always right behind
Their laughter drives you
Right out of my mind –
When you call me, I have to reply
When you want me,
You force me to try
Will you free me,
Or wave me goodbye
Wide awake for all our sakes tonight
Change the right to sleep
For the right to serve
Slaves who cannot weep
When they lose their nerve
You’re a runaway,
And a loser gone wild
Staring up a way,
To day and the sun
