Issue No 107 Stay Awake Lyrics

Send me with a prayer on your pedestal
With your china doll kiss a broken glass
I promise not to cause any miracles
I'm a bad idea

Wear it with the white on your wedding day
In your polaroids smile behind your teeth
Loaded with the youth of a candy cane
Keep your conscience near

But stay awake with me
And I'll show you
We don't need to sleep to dream
If you stay awake with me

If you stay awake with me
If you stay, if you stay
Awake

Asleep until your favorite lullaby
Is a born-again chance to tell the truth
Under every wing of a butterfly
Lets your hold back tears

Desire is a feel and a phobia
Our habitual paranoia state
It makes you show the lonely lonelier
So, baby, meet me here

But stay awake with me
And I'll show you
We don't need to sleep to dream
If you stay awake with me

If you stay awake with me
If you stay, if you stay
Awake

We could build clouds on enemies
If you stay awake with me
We could find fault in remedy
If you stay awake with me

We could build clouds on enemies
If you stay awake with me
We could find fault in remedy
If you stay awake with me

But stay awake with me
And I'll show you
We don't need to sleep to dream
If you stay awake

If you stay awake with me
If you stay, if you stay
Awake with me
