I Am Awake Lyrics

And all the things we wish we said have taken their toll.

"The clock will keep perfect time," he said.

So don't slow down, don't wait up for me.

And it's only a matter of what grows beneath.

And it's runnin' through my head.

This tickin' is taking me down, now.

And it's runnin through my head.

This tickin' is taking me down.

I'm losing all control and I can't help myself.

I'm losin all control, I know.

And I found myself away from what I know.

And I found myself at home.

And it's runnin through my head.

This tickin' is taking me down now.

And it's runnin tharough my head.

This tickin' is taking me down.

I'm losin' all control and I can't help myself.

I'm losin' all control, I know.

And I found myself away from what I know.

And I found myself at home.

This tickin' is taking me down, now

This tickin' is taking me down.

This tickin' is taking me down, now.

This tickin' is taking me down.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Not sure how a band can be my favorite with only 5 songs out, but they are.
