Lyrics, Cara Baca & English Translation

Oh, can you stay awake?

One more hour, maybe this can change

Oh, can you numb the pain?

'Cause it runs deep in constant waves

How's it gonna work when we can't admit it?

Pretend that we don't know now

Tried to drag it out, but we beared it livin'

We can let it go now

Had a fire, but it's dying down

We tried to make a wave

But we got lost and swept away

Tried to drag it out, but we beared it livin'

We can let it go now
