If you twist and turn away
It you tear yourself in two again
If I could, you know, I would
If I could, I would let it go
Surrender, dislocate

If I could throw this lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you break, break away
Into the night, through the rain
To the half light, through the flame

If I could through myself, set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light, through the day

So let it go and so fade away
To let it go and so fade away
Wide awake, I'm wide awake
I'm not sleeping, oh no, no, no
I'm not sleeping

If they should ask, well, maybe
They'd tell me what I should say
True colors fly in blue and black
Blue silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide in blood-shot eyes

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would let it go

This desperation, separation
Condemnation
Revelation, in temptation
Isolation, desolation, isolation

Let it go and so fade away
To let it go and so fade, fade, fade away
Oh, I'll fade away, hey, hey
I'll fade away, no, no, no, no, fade away

Wide awake, I'm wide awake
Wide awake, I'm wide awake
Wide awake, I'm not sleeping
Oh no, no, no
I'm not sleeping

Come on down
Come on down
Come on down, sing it
Come on down
