Wide awake, you can't sleep as you look at the light from the shades

Close your eyes, but it doesn't help you forget the hurt that resides



Yeah my heart goes out to you, or anyone who's felt this way

I can't lie, I've been there too with sadness I can't place



Cause I know how you feel right now

When it all looks surreal & the morning light feels close

But you're far away



You should see everything in color, no room for black & white

Start living, there's no time to get hung up on all that sucks in life



Yeah my heart goes out to you, or anyone who's felt this way

I can't lie, I've been there too with sadness & the growing pains



And you've reached for the stars, but never gotten that far

Where's the joy that lived inside your life

Has it died, or are you holding yourself down
