[Verse 1: John Rzeznik]
I've been where the river ran
I'm drowning in a sunless sea
Sleep has helped me find my end
You promised me you'd set me free
Don't fall asleep to dream
A banshee's at my window pane
There's an angel at my feet
Don't fall asleep to dream

[Chorus: John Rzeznik & Robby Takac]
I'm awake now
(You can't touch me, I won't sleep no more)
I'm awake now

[Verse 2: John Rzeznik]
In the corner of my mind
Where he sits and waits for me
There's a wall of confusion building
And the sky begins to bleed on me
Don't fall asleep to dream
I'm looking for a way out now
Peace of mind is all I need
Don't fall asleep to dream

[Chorus: John Rzeznik & Robby Takac]
I'm awake now
(You can't touch me, I won't sleep no more)
I'm awake now
(You can't touch me, I won't sleep no more)
I'm awake now
(You can't touch me, I won't sleep no more)
I'm awake now
[Outro: John Rzeznik]
I'm awake now
I'm awake now
I'm awake now
I'm awake now
I'm awake now
