Wide Awake Sleeping

from Stockholm by Hanlon's Razor

lyrics

Wide Awake Sleeping

Bright light of day
Shines through the bedroom curtains
In a daze between sleep and wake
I can clearly see your face

The tension high now the play has ended
Innocent merriment lost its pace
Pretend to sleep but carefully sensing
Every movement, each detail

We hide from a truth that we don’t know
Running from places where we should be
But running brings us even closer; hiding away just draws it near
Can words, deeds, feelings turn against us
Now all contrasts fade away

I can’t tell right from wrong anymore
Don’t want to feel the hurt anymore
The doubt has torn me up before
Will it ever let me go?

I was just merely acting
Overseeing not the consequence
Knowing all too well but oppressing
Now we don’t succeed the other way around

Never to forget; never to recall
Hard to feel the truth if it was ever there at all
I wish the memory were clearer
I wish my heart was yearning less...
