**Intro** Yeah… It’s quiet when you finally listen **Verse 1** I been starin’ at the ceiling like it got answers Fan spinnin’ slow, mind movin’ faster Laugh with my friends, but I don’t say much They see the smile, don’t feel the crutch I got love, still feel alone Got a phone full of names I won’t call home Every win feel hollow somehow I made it here, but I don’t know how **Pre-Chorus** I keep tellin’ myself I’ll be okay But my voice don’t sound convinced when I say **Chorus** I’m still awake when the world go quiet Thought I’d find peace, but I keep denyin’ All the weight that I hide in my chest I say “I’m fine” like it’s my best guess Yeah I’m still awake, eyes heavy, heart tired Tryna put out flames, but I’m wired If tomorrow come, I hope I cope I been runnin’ low, but I still got hope --- **Verse 2** I remember dreams feelin’ simple Now they feel sharp, yeah they poke my mental Pressure hit different when they know your name Everybody cheer, but you still feel strange I give love away like I don’t need it Say I’m past the pain, but I still feed it Got scars I joke about in the daylight But they scream at me every midnight **Pre-Chorus** If I slow down, all the thoughts collide So I stay movin’ just to survive **Chorus** I’m still awake when the lights go dim Tryna make peace with the mess I’m in All this noise in my head won’t rest I just want quiet, not happiness Yeah I’m still awake, talkin’ to ghosts Old versions of me I miss the most If I drown a little, I still float I been losin’ faith, but I still hope --- **Bridge** Maybe I’m broken, maybe just human Maybe this pain just part of the movement If I fall apart, don’t look away I’m just tryna make it through another day --- **Verse 3** I ain’t askin’ for savin’ or signs Just a moment where my heart unwind I been strong for so long it hurts Carryin’ heaven and carryin’ dirt If I disappear inside my head Just know I tried my best instead I loved hard, even when it cost Still lookin’ for what I lost **Final Chorus** I’m still awake, eyes on the dawn Wonderin’ where all the time gone If this sadness never fully leaves I’ll learn to sit with it quietly Yeah I’m still awake, but I breathe Even broken hearts still beat If there’s light on the other side I’ll keep swimmin’ ‘til I arrive --- **Outro** Yeah… If you hear this, I’m still here Just tired ---

Still Awake
