Still Awake

**Intro**

Yeah…

It’s quiet when you finally listen

**Verse 1**

I been starin’ at the ceiling like it got answers

Fan spinnin’ slow, mind movin’ faster

Laugh with my friends, but I don’t say much

They see the smile, don’t feel the crutch

I got love, still feel alone

Got a phone full of names I won’t call home

Every win feel hollow somehow

I made it here, but I don’t know how

**Pre-Chorus**

I keep tellin’ myself I’ll be okay

But my voice don’t sound convinced when I say

**Chorus**

I’m still awake when the world go quiet

Thought I’d find peace, but I keep denyin’

All the weight that I hide in my chest

I say “I’m fine” like it’s my best guess

Yeah I’m still awake, eyes heavy, heart tired

Tryna put out flames, but I’m wired

If tomorrow come, I hope I cope

I been runnin’ low, but I still got hope

---

**Verse 2**

I remember dreams feelin’ simple

Now they feel sharp, yeah they poke my mental

Pressure hit different when they know your name

Everybody cheer, but you still feel strange

I give love away like I don’t need it

Say I’m past the pain, but I still feed it

Got scars I joke about in the daylight

But they scream at me every midnight

**Pre-Chorus**

If I slow down, all the thoughts collide

So I stay movin’ just to survive

**Chorus**

I’m still awake when the lights go dim

Tryna make peace with the mess I’m in

All this noise in my head won’t rest

I just want quiet, not happiness

Yeah I’m still awake, talkin’ to ghosts

Old versions of me I miss the most

If I drown a little, I still float

I been losin’ faith, but I still hope

---

**Bridge**

Maybe I’m broken, maybe just human

Maybe this pain just part of the movement

If I fall apart, don’t look away

I’m just tryna make it through another day

---

**Verse 3**

I ain’t askin’ for savin’ or signs

Just a moment where my heart unwind

I been strong for so long it hurts

Carryin’ heaven and carryin’ dirt

If I disappear inside my head

Just know I tried my best instead

I loved hard, even when it cost

Still lookin’ for what I lost

**Final Chorus**

I’m still awake, eyes on the dawn

Wonderin’ where all the time gone

If this sadness never fully leaves

I’ll learn to sit with it quietly

Yeah I’m still awake, but I breathe

Even broken hearts still beat

If there’s light on the other side

I’ll keep swimmin’ ‘til I arrive

---

**Outro**

Yeah…

If you hear this, I’m still here

Just tired
