Bad (Wide Awake in America)

Wide Awake in America
Buy this album

Bad


The original version can be found on The Unforgettable Fire.


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 fade away
To let it go
And so fade away

Wide awake
I'm 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 flag
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go...

This desparation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Isolation
Let it go

And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade....fade...
Fade away...

Not fade away, hey, hey
Not fade away
No, no, no, not fade away

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

Come on down
Come on down
Come on down
(Sing it)
Come on down
