Wide Awake

[Verse 1] You came in with a matchbook heart And a map with the corners torn I was counting the cracks in the kitchen tile You were daring the day to be born [Pre-Chorus] Now the walls lean back And the ceiling gives There’s a pulse in the room Like the whole place lives [Chorus] We are more than the damage More than the names they gave We are sparks in the engine We are hands on the wheel We are wide awake If the road breaks open Let it show us the way Put your fear in my pocket And step into the flame We are wide awake [Verse 2] There’s a bus ticket under your glass And a voicemail you never sent Every small goodbye we survived Left a little more room to invent [Pre-Chorus] So let the old plans crack Let the borrowed rules bend We can build something honest From the pieces they left [Chorus] We are more than the damage More than the names they gave We are sparks in the engine We are hands on the wheel We are wide awake If the road breaks open Let it show us the way Put your fear in my pocket And step into the flame We are wide awake [Bridge] When the morning finds us With our shoes full of dust I will know by your breathing That the future is us No perfect beginning No promise carved in stone Just your hand in my hand And a place we can call home [Final Chorus] We are more than the damage More than the names they gave We are sparks in the engine We are hands on the wheel We are wide awake If the road breaks open Let it show us the way Put your fear in my pocket And step into the flame We are wide awake [Outro] Wide awake Wide awake Nothing left to wait for Wide awake
