(Verse 1)
Stay awake, because there's no sleep when everything's at stake.
Today we pray, we pray for better things, better things these days.
And if you will be alright then I could be alive then&
(Chorus)
You would have a star under your bed.
And I would have the lonely nights instead.
Of all the wishes I put in your hands.
You'd have a star for who you are, and it'd keep you safe and fed. Now.
(Verse 2)
It's natural, but it's hard to let it go.
When we're doing things for love and not for show.
Our hands they held the deepest part of the soul.
But they're reaching now for something else to hold.
And if you will be alright then I could be alive and&
(Chorus)
You would have a star under your bed.
And I would have the lonely nights instead.
Of all the wishes I put in your hands.
You'd have a star for who you are, and it'd keep you safe and fed. Now.
(Bridge)
Would you keep me locked in?
Could you keep me alive then?
Would you need me if I said?
There are better things this life will bring, better things for you.
(Chorus)
You would have a star under your bed.
And I would have the lonely nights instead.
Of all the wishes I put in your hands.
You'd have a star for who you are, and it'd keep you, keep you, yeah.
(Chorus)
You would have a star under your bed.
And I would have the lonely nights instead.
Of all the wishes I put in your hands.
You'd have a star for who you are, and it'd keep you safe and fed. Now.
(Coda)
And if you will be alright then I will be just fine.
And you will stay alive then maybe I'll survive.
Stay awake, because there's no sleep when everything's at stake.
Today we pray, we pray for better things, better things these days.
And if you will be alright then I could be alive then&
(Chorus)
You would have a star under your bed.
And I would have the lonely nights instead.
Of all the wishes I put in your hands.
You'd have a star for who you are, and it'd keep you safe and fed. Now.
