No One Left Awake

Go, before the moments fade
The daylight they portrayed is gone
We only see the dawn

Beneath the weight I hide
A feeling that I tried to fake
There’s no one left awake

I see it all around me
A shadow of what could be
It’s like they never tried
And no, the walls aren’t closing on me
I’ll never see what you see
I’d never need to hide
In the world that I’d create

There’s no one left awake

Break, the silence that we keep
The comfort words we seek, you say
There is no other way

We hear it second hand
No questioning the plans they make
There’s no one left awake

I see it all around me
A shadow of what could be
It’s like they never tried
And no, the walls aren’t closing on me
I’ll never see what you see
I’d never need to hide
In the world that I’d create

There’s no one left awake
