- Stay Awake Lyrics

If we don't kill ourselves we'll be the leaders of a messed up generation.
If we don't kid ourselves will they believe us if we tell them the reasons why
Did we take it too far, take it too far
Did we chase the rabbit into wonderland
Lose a hundred grand, will they understand
It was all to stay awake for the longest

March on, always after us
Lost troops, half the class of us
You man ain't seen the last of us
Stick around, yeah like elastoplast
Not half mast, raise the flag
kick the sand,
To let you know that we're coming and we're nasty man.

Don't need sleeping beauty,
No, it's what you do to me
Come midnight and daybreak,
yes please gotta find me a namesake,
we got faith but don't need bibles
take the micheal, hear my recital
i hold the title, quite vital
we get high on the opposite of nital

It was all to stay awake for the longest,
and, it was wrong
it was wrong, but it felt so right

See you at the finish line,
See you at the finish line
If you got the heart to join us

If we don't kill ourselves we'll be the leaders of a messed up generation.
If we don't kid ourselves will they believe us if we tell them the reasons why
Did we take it too far, take it too far
Did we chase the rabbit into wonderland
Lose a hundred grand, will they understand
It was all to stay awake for the longest

March on, always after us
Lost troops, half the class of us
You man ain't seen the last of us
Stick around, yeah like elastoplast
Not half mast, raise the flag
kick the sand,
To let you know that we're coming and we're nasty man.

Don't need sleeping beauty,
No, it's what you do to me
Come midnight and daybreak,
yes please gotta find me a namesake,
we got faith but, don't need bibles
take the micheal, hear my recital
i hold the title, quite vital
we get high on the opposite of nital

We just grow, if it's late
Then we'll show, we don't wait
We just grow, if you hate
we don't show, we don't wait
We just grow, if it's late
Then we'll show, we don't wait
We just grow

If we don't kill ourselves we'll be the leaders of a messed up generation.
If we don't kid ourselves will they believe us if we tell them the reasons why
Did we take it too far, take it too far
Did we chase the rabbit into wonderland
Lose a hundred grand, will they understand
It was all to stay awake for the longest
