- Bono (U2 - from
the album "The
Unforgettable
Fire")

If you twist and turn away
If you tear
yourself in two
again
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate

If I could throw this
Lifeless lifeline to the wind
I'd 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 through 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 to fade away
To let it go
And so fade away

I'm wide awake

Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no

If you should ask
then maybe they'd
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in
blue and black
Bruised silken sky
and burning flag
Colors crash,
collide in blood
shot eyes

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go...

This desperation
Dislocation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Let it go

And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade away
To let it go
And so to fade away

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no, no, no
