Stay Awake (Dreams Only Last For A Night) (Acoustic) Songtext / Lyric

Caught in a cold sweat stuck splitting hairs

I'm drinking too much

I'm on my way to striking out



Go to sleep with the pressure of everyone

Watching, waiting, they're yours for the taking

But I still have my doubts



Before you ask which way to go

Remember where you've been



Stay awake, get a grip and get out

You're safe from the weight of the world

Just take a second to set things straight



I'll be fine even though I'm not always right

I can count on the sun to shine

Dedication takes a lifetime

But dreams only last for a night



Figure it out boy, you're tripping

So pull yourself together

Or you'll wash up like the rest






This ship is sinking, I'm thinking I'm done for

I watch as the sails disappear underwater

'Cause I'm no captain yet



I said, "Before you ask which way to go

Remember where you've been"



Stay awake, get a grip and get out

You're safe from the weight of the world

Just take a second to set things straight



I'll be fine, even though I'm not always right

I can count on the sun to shine

Dedication takes a lifetime

But dreams only last for a night



Believe you me, I'll give them everything

I'd tell them anything to show them everything

Believe you me, I'll give them everything

I'd tell them anything to show them everything



'Cause you ain't the only ones who wanna live it up

You ain't the only ones

You ain't the only ones who wanna live it up

You ain't the only ones



You ain't the only ones who wanna live it up

You ain't the only ones

You ain't the only ones who wanna live it up

You ain't the only ones



Stay awake, get a grip and get out

You're safe from the weight of the world

Just take a second to set things straight



I'll be fine, even though I'm not always right

I can count on the sun to shine

Dedication takes a lifetime

But dreams only last for a night
