The moment I reacted when I dared to run away And I'm caught in a sensation, a witness to your closing eyes Why always the innocent the first to fall? Unable to comprehend, couldn't protect Take your place or rewind the time The hardest part remains for those left behind When it's over a fading light in you Don't wake me up 'til I'm sober I know we're incomplete We're not okay I feel disconnected The smile on your face, I swore I'd protect it A lie, I can't take the weight of my back The words that I said, the noose around my neck Take my light, too high the price you paid Tell me how can I save a life if I'm afraid, 'cause I'm afraid So please let me know When it's over a fading light in you Don't wake me up 'til I'm sober I know we're incomplete, we're not okay I know we're incomplete, we're not okay No escape from what I've done The moment I reacted when I dared to run away And I'm caught in a sensation, a witness to your closing eyes And no one tells you how to bear the weight of your excuse 'Cause we know it's no use Take my light, too high the price you paid Tell me how can I save a life if I'm afraid, 'cause I'm afraid So please let me know When it's over a fading light in you Don't wake me up 'til I'm sober I know we're incomplete, we're not okay
