Awake.

Adam Shenk, you make me smile.

Late to bed and late to rise.
I rub the sleep from my eyes.
I hide from the sun, half awake.
Did I have fun the night before?
Our clothes are scattered on the floor.
I'm fully conscious about half of the time and half of the time I'm nearly blind.
What will I do with my day, anyway?

If the world ends tonight and tomorrow never comes, would I be proud of what I've done?
Satisfied with what I've become?
Sometimes I close my eyes, but you won't catch me sleeping.
I just want to live, love and stay awake.

I often wonder if I've slipped away from what I was once imaginative when I was young.
Do I still believe in God?
And do I dream a little less?
Maybe life is just pieces of things, like the rain in the night...
The bark of a dog...
A mothers love.
What will I take with me when I go?
I dont know.

If the world ends tonight and tomorrow never comes, would I be proud of what I've done?
Satisfied with what I've become?
Sometimes I close my eyes, but you won't catch me sleeping.
I just want to live, love and stay awake.

There's a couple of things that I've done wrong, but I know I cant regret 'em.
Theres a couple of scars that just won't fade, but I'm not compete without 'em.
The bitter despair of regret wont plague me.
I know that the bumps in the road wont break me; they'll shake me and make me grow.

Late to bed and late to rise.
I rub the sleep from my eyes.
I welcome the sun, wide awake.
Sometimes life is like a dream.

If the world ends tonight and tomorrow never comes, would I be proud of what I've done?
Satisfied with what I've become?
Sometimes I close my eyes, but you wont catch me sleeping.
I just want to live, love and stay awake.
