The city of people is calling my name But I don't fit in with the rest 'Cause it goes fast it goes slow but here nobody knows What is going on inside my head Here I can't stop without taking in all the yearning I can't see past the point of no return So give me a moment to breathe 'Cause we're moving so fast I can't hear myself think Give me a reason to stay 'Cause it looks like my dreams are all turning to gray And I know I'm awake Yes I know that I'm wide awake See I'm tired of the games that my mind wants to play They are keeping me up late at night Some are telling me yes some are telling me no And I can't tell which voices are right No I can't stop without looking like I am clueless I can't see past the edge of the abyss So give me a moment to breathe 'Cause we're moving so fast I can't hear myself think Give me a reason to stay 'Cause it looks like my dreams are all turning to gray And I know I'm awake Yes I know that I'm wide awake No I can't stop 'cause that will let the world know I am helpless If I proceed I'm bound to go astray I'm wasting time and if I am just being honest I need someone to show me the way So give me a moment to breathe 'Cause we're moving so fast I can't hear myself think Give me a reason to stay 'Cause it looks like my dreams are all turning to gray So give me a moment to breathe 'Cause we're moving so fast I can't hear myself think Give me a reason to stay 'Cause it looks like my dreams are all turning to gray And I know I'm awake Yes I know that I'm wide awake
