Wide Awake - The Expendables

I buried my face into my palms again

Tryin' to wake up

On my world that is tired of spinnin' here

Why do I fail my feet are stuck to cement

Sink into the bottom of my soul

I try to stand up to catch my self reflection

The shattered pieces collapse to the floor

Why can’t I crawl to my dark corner, hard and cold

Sometimes my grip wants to let go

So wide a wide awake I lay

Do I have what it’s gonna take

To keep on keeping on

So wide a wide awake I lay

Can I take this weight from holdin' me down

Another morning sucked that night

Another night passes away

(Recently it all just feels the same)

I try to laugh it off, but it grows where I’m soft

Gripping into me while I sleep

Holdin' on feels like the wrong direction

Why do my dreams come out fake

A lot, a lot short of satisfaction

It least I’m locked in a familiar place

So wide a wide awake I lay

Do I have what it’s gonna take

To keep on keeping on

So wide a wide awake I lay

Can I take this weight from holdin' me down

I work myself over

I work myself over, again

So wide a wide awake I lay

Do I have what it’s gonna take

To keep on keeping on

So wide a wide awake I lay

Can I take this weight from holdin' me down
