Tinyfish - Wide Awake At Midnight 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 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
