Lyrics
[Verse 1] You arrived like a question I could not outrun A spark in the dark when the damage was done I had my name carved deep in a wall of doubt Then you touched the fault line and let the truth out I was counting the cost of a life kept small You were calling my courage from behind the wall Now the old fears fall where the silence had grown I can feel my pulse saying, go on your own [Pre-Chorus] If I lose what I knew, let it fall away There is more in my blood than the price I paid [Chorus] I’m wide awake, wide awake With your fire running through me No more chains, no more brakes Nothing left that can undo me If the world wants a choice, I choose the open flame I’m wide awake, wide awake And I won’t go back the same [Verse 2] There were nights I wore pride like a suit of steel Kept a heart full of thunder I refused to feel Every promise I broke left a mark on my skin But the door is still turning, let the new begin You don’t ask me to vanish, you don’t ask me to bend You see every fracture and call me your friend Now the past can keep talking, it won’t steer my way I’ve got miles in my spirit and a debt to repay [Pre-Chorus] If I lose what I knew, let it fall away There is more in my blood than the price I paid [Chorus] I’m wide awake, wide awake With your fire running through me No more chains, no more brakes Nothing left that can undo me If the world wants a choice, I choose the open flame I’m wide awake, wide awake And I won’t go back the same [Bridge] Let the old names fade Let the locked doors break Every scar I carry Is a map of the strength I made I can love without losing I can rise without proof When the doubt comes knocking I’ll be standing in the truth [Breakdown] Wide awake I can feel it now Wide awake Hear my heart say loud [Final Chorus] I’m wide awake, wide awake With your fire running through me No more chains, no more brakes Nothing left that can undo me If the world wants a choice, I choose the open flame I’m wide awake, wide awake And I won’t go back the same [Outro] I won’t go back I won’t go back the same Wide awake I choose the open flame
