Is this the song that inspired the album name?

"Wide awake and still asleep"

Karnivool – Set Fire To The Hive Lyrics 15 years ago
The video clip for the song is chock full of symbolism.

The public as worker bees for the queen.

The "hive"/"structure built to fall" as a pyramid, referring to the ancient Egyptian dictatorship of the Pharoah and the enforcement of slave labor - "a structure built to fall/still we all obey"

Could be referring to Buddhism? Attachment to the world - greed, hyprocrisy

Karnivool – Themata Lyrics 15 years ago
When I read the lyrics to the song, the theme of meditation and enlightenment came to mind immediately.
Especially these lines:

Lie awake, still, as I try to breathe
Surely you mean this is something
You're bringing me down to a silent breath
and it's the truth that I wanna see


In the sensory, serenity
could it be, that I'm the next to see?
