Wide Awake

dubstep metalcore fused with mainstream pop-punk, high-energy 4/4 drive, huge distorted guitars, punchy live drums, sub-heavy electronic bass, glitch edits on section changes, tight modern sidechain, polished major-label mix, expressive clean male chorus vocals contrasted with gritty shouted accents and rapid rhythmic rap in verse two, catchy singalong hook, half-time breakdown impact, crisp vocal tuning and layered gang shouts

[Intro]
Count it in, let the whole room shake
No more waiting on a clean escape

[Verse 1]
You said I’d fold when the pressure came
So I wrote your doubt beside my name
Every locked door made a louder sound
Every lost step turned me back around

I got a pulse like a warning sign
And a little bit of reckless left inside
If you want proof, come close and see
What you tried to bury waking up in me

[Pre-Chorus]
Turn it up, let the ceiling bend
This is where the quiet ends

[Chorus]
We’re wide awake, wide awake
With a match in the gasoline
No brakes, no brakes
You can’t take what you couldn’t keep
Hands up, hearts loud
Let the whole place know our name
We’re wide awake, wide awake
And we’re never going back the same

[Verse 2]
Tick-tick, pressure in the red zone
Big talk, now I’m calling from the dead phone
Step in, let the kick hit, no hesitation
Built this from a bad hand and a blank page
Fast lane, every setback got a price tag
Payback, I don’t need your little side chat
Head down, ten toes when the floor cracks
Came up with a storm and I brought that

No sleep, no pause, no permission
Cut through every cheap prediction
You drew lines, I crossed each one
Now the countdown says the job’s begun

[Pre-Chorus]
Turn it up, let the ceiling bend
This is where the quiet ends

[Bridge]
If the ground gives way, we run on air
If the lights cut out, we’re still right there
Say it once, say it twice, say it till it breaks
We are more than every mistake

[Breakdown]
Get up!
Lock in!
Let the system overload!
Get up!
Lock in!
We carry what we chose!

[Final Chorus]
We’re wide awake, wide awake
With a match in the gasoline
No brakes, no brakes
You can’t take what you couldn’t keep
Hands up, hearts loud
Let the whole place know our name
We’re wide awake, wide awake
And we’re never going back the same

[Outro]
Wide awake
Wide awake
Never going back the same
