[Verse 1]
I toil in silence, don't know where my mind is
Numb from the shock of it all
Cut myself open, but I wasn't broken
Tryin' to fix what wasn't wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you feel it takin' over?
I know I'm not alone
If I must go, the waves should drag me out
[Chorus]
When every lie was kept so close
Burned by the game for what I chose
Now you're tossin' and turnin'
I'm pullin' the plug on the dream
'Cause the end of you is the start of life for me
[Verse 2]
How was I to know?
Crystalline castles turned to dust in the palm of your hand
But I'm wide awake this time
Burn it down to find nothin' inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you feel it takin' over?
I feel it creepin' in
I'm back at the edge again (Hey)
[Chorus]
When every lie was kept so close
Burned by the game for what I chose
Now you're tossin' and turnin'
I'm pullin' the plug on the dream
'Cause the end of you is the start of life for me
[Breakdown]
The start of life for me
My innocence was blind
Now I can finally see
The start of life for me
[Verse 3]
You make me feel so wide awake for good this time
You are an echo of a dream as it fades from my mind
Wide awake for good this time
I can finally let go of the shame as I claim my new life
[Bridge]
Sung from a fractured lullaby
Innocence drainin' from our eyes
All I wanted was stolen
I hate all that I believed
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
[Outro]
You're tossin' and turnin'
I'm pullin' the plug on the dream
'Cause the end of you is the start of life for me
