Lie Awake by Chandler Leighton Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey kiddo, it's me
I thought I'd let you get some rest
You're probably exhausted after work
Hope you're okay
Give me a call when you can
Love you

[Verse 1]
I know sometimes it gets hard to breathe
When you always get pulled down underneath
And some things, they feel hard to say
When these voices start to weigh you down
I know that I always think too much
But I'm only learning how to trust
The dark and I have become friends
Used to be scared, won't pretend right now

[Chorus 1]
If a bird takes flight
Without a reason why
And the moon circles the earth
And you can't make it through the night
You could leave tonight
To my house nearby
You can lie awake with me until the sun begins to rise
[Verse 2]
Does he hear you falling to your knees?
Praying to a god you don't believe in
Pick yourself up off the floor
Promise that it's all worth fighting for

[Chorus 2]
Like a tree, don't know
Just how tall it grows
Standing in the woods
He knows that he is not alone
So you'll get there too
And you'll be there soon
If only you can see yourself the way that I see you

[Outro]
Lie awake with me when it's hard to sleep
Lie awake with me
Lie awake with me when it's hard to sleep
Lie awake with me
Lie awake with me
