Bad
If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate
If I could throw this lifeless
Lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
And through the rain
Into the half-light
And through the flame
If I could throw myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light
And to the day
To let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no
If you should ask then maybe they
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken skies and burnin' flag
Colors crash, collide in bloodshot eyes
If I could, you know I would
If I could I would
Let it go
Desperation
Dislocation
Separation, condemnation
Revelation, in temptation
Isolation, desolation
Let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no
I'm not sleeping
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate
If I could throw this lifeless
Lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
And through the rain
Into the half-light
And through the flame
If I could throw myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light
And to the day
To let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no
If you should ask then maybe they
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken skies and burnin' flag
Colors crash, collide in bloodshot eyes
If I could, you know I would
If I could I would
Let it go
Desperation
Dislocation
Separation, condemnation
Revelation, in temptation
Isolation, desolation
Let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no
I'm not sleeping
