Wide Awake By Katy Perry

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was in the dark
I was falling hard
With an open heart
I'm wide awake
How did I read the stars so wrong?
I'm wide awake
And now it's clear to me
That everything you see
Ain't always what it seems
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was dreaming for so long

[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
'Til I woke up on
On the concrete

[Chorus]
Falling from cloud 9
Crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight
Yeah, I'm falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake
Not losing any sleep
I picked up every piece
And landed on my feet
I'm wide awake
Need nothing to complete myself, no

I'm wide awake
Yeah, I am born again
Outta the lion's den
I don't have to pretend
And it's too late
The story's over now, the end

[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
'Til I woke up on
On the concrete

[Chorus]
Falling from cloud 9 (it was out of the blue)
I'm crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting you go)
I'm falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake
Thunder rumbling
Castles crumbling
I'm wide awake
I am trying to hold on
I'm wide awake
God knows that I tried
Seeing the bright side
I'm wide awake
But I'm not blind anymore...

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake

[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm falling from cloud 9 (it was out of the blue)
I'm crashing from the high
You know I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting you go)
I'm falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake

Changed

"You've changed." you tell me, "You're different." you say. Well wouldn't you expect me to change, When you left me and went away. It broke me into pieces, I crumbled without you near.

Back To Me

Feel the rip in my soul. A giant aching, bleeding hole. Sitting here all alone. Selfhating down to the bone. Can't believe this happened to me. Feeling so damn unhappy. Once strong and proud.

3. The Lists

To be honest, I've never found true love before, though I had a boyfriend before. His name was Adam we were together for about a month.

Don't Let Things Get To You

Imagine if you we're sad, something happened like a relative dying or being broken up with.. You feel like your whole life has ended, the world has collapsed around you..

I'm Gonna Be Ok.

Many times the flowers tried to tell me, Umpteen times the trees tried to warn me, Even my own heart gave up on me, When the wind blew harshly across my face that's when it hit me...
