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
 [bad word] 
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
 [bad word] 
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
picked up every piece
and landed on my feet
i’m wide awake
need nothing [bad word] 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 – yeah
 [bad word] 
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
 [bad word] 
falling from cloud 9
crashing from the high
i’m letting go tonight
(yeah i’m) falling from cloud 9
 [bad word] castles [bad word] i am trying to hold on
god knows that i tried
seeing the bright side
but i’m not blind anymore…’cause i’m… wide awake
 [bad word] 
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
