Stay Awake - Skott

Stay

Stay awake

Open your eyes and dream with me

And you know we

We don’t need the light

You and I like fireflies

We do better in the night

In a perfect world my mind would swirl

With ways to bring it down

I need it to hurt, need it to burn

Need it to burn

Once we had a dream

We once had a dream

This dream is all that I can see

All that I can think about

And now I keep it close to me

Do you ever think

Do you ever think

About the things that could have been

Do you ever dream like I do?

Do you keep it close to you

Do you keep it close to you?

I, I don’t mind being in the shade

If I’m in the shadow of

Something big and beautiful

And leaves brown and dry

Doesn’t mean time’s running out

Doesn’t mean the tree will die

In a perfect world my mind would swirl

With ways to bring it down

I need it to hurt, need it to burn

Need it to burn

Once we had a dream

We once had a dream

This dream is all that I can see

All that I can think about

And now I keep it close to me

Do you ever think

Do you ever think

About the things that could have been

Do you ever dream like I do?

Do you keep it close to you

Do you keep it close to you?
