Lyrics
I'm wide awake
I am fully awake and aware.
Now I know I'm feelin' everything
I now understand and experience all emotions.
A big mistake
Acknowledging a significant error or regret.
Thinking I could change the way you see
Believing I could alter your perception of me.
I'll play the part
Assuming a role or facade.
Tryin' to hold on to everything
Attempting to cling to everything.
Uncross my heart
Undoing a commitment or promise.
Just a thousand needles in my eye
Feeling intense pain or discomfort.
She said
Quoting a dialogue or statement.
We can go all night
Offering the possibility of an extended time together.
Build this empire
Building something significant or powerful.
Six weeks to get it right
A specific timeframe given to achieve success.
Holy ground
Referring to a sacred or important place.
Or burn it down
Suggesting destruction if unsuccessful.
I want love
Desiring love that has a profound impact.
That doesn't leave me sober anymore
Love that keeps one from being sober emotionally.
It's not enough
Expressing dissatisfaction; current situation is insufficient.
We can't go back to what we had before
Unable to revert to a previous state or relationship.
Uncross my heart
Undoing a commitment or promise again.
I know I'll be the villain in this scene
Acknowledging the role of the antagonist in the situation.
Both of us
Both individuals involved in tearing apart the situation.
Tearing it all open at the seams
Causing significant damage or disruption.
She said
Repeating a previous statement or conversation.
We can go all night

Build this empire

Six weeks to get it right

Holy ground
Referring to a sacred or important place (repeated).
Or burn it down
Suggesting destruction if unsuccessful (repeated).
I'm wide awake
Being fully awake and aware again.
Trying to recover from this dream
Attempting to recover from a challenging or surreal experience.
Say my name
Requesting to be acknowledged or recognized.
Or secrets make a slave of us again
Secrets have the potential to control or harm us.

We can go all night
