If you twist and turn away
If 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
Into 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 to fade away
To let it go
A-ha
And so fade away
Wide awake
I'm wide awake
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
Bruised silken sky and burning flak
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
A-ha
And so fade away
To let it go
A-ha
And so fade, fade
fade away
Not fade away
Not fade away
No, no no
Not fade away
I'm 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
Oh no
Come on down
Come on down
Come on down
Sing it
Come on down.
If 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
Into 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 to fade away
To let it go
A-ha
And so fade away
Wide awake
I'm wide awake
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
Bruised silken sky and burning flak
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
A-ha
And so fade away
To let it go
A-ha
And so fade, fade
fade away
Not fade away
Not fade away
No, no no
Not fade away
I'm 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
Oh no
Come on down
Come on down
Come on down
Sing it
Come on down.
