Stay Awake (Dreams Only Last For A Night) Lyrics

Caught in a cold sweat, stuck splitting hairs
And drinking too much
I'm on my way to striking out
Go to sleep with the pressure of everyone
Watching and waiting
They're yours for the taking
But I still have my doubts
Before you ask which way to go
Remember where you've been

Stay awake
Get a grip, and get out
You're safe from the weight of the world
Just take a second to set things straight
I'll be fine even though I'm not always right
I can count on the sun to shine;
Dedication takes a lifetime
But dreams only last for a night

Figure it out
Boy, you're tripping
So pull yourself together
Or you'll wash up like the rest
This ship is sinking
I'm thinking I'm done for
I'll watch as the sails disappear under water
'Cause I'm no captain yet
Before you ask which way to go
Remember where you've been

Stay awake
Get a grip, and get out
You're safe from the weight of the world
Just take a second to set things straight
I'll be fine even though I'm not always right
I can count on the sun to shine;
Dedication takes a lifetime
But dreams only last for a night

Believe you me, I'll give them everything
I'd tell them anything
I'll show them everything
Believe you me
I'd tell them everything
I'd tell them anything
To show them everything

You ain't the only ones who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones
You ain't the only ones who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones
You ain't the only ones who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones
You ain't the only ones who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones
You ain't the only ones who wanna live it up
You ain't the only ones

Stay awake
Get a grip, and get out
You're safe from the weight of the world
Just take a second to set things straight
I'll be fine even though I'm not always right
I can count on the sun to shine;
Dedication takes a lifetime
But dreams only last for a night
