Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Shots fired, and you wanna feel the heat
You're gonna wake the beast
Shots fired, ain't make-believe
It ain't make-believe
[PreChorus]
Ooh, you know a lustful heart, it leads
Ooh, but a heart deceives
It's hotter than inferno, you know Dante
Let's keep it elegante
[Chorus]
Take what we're just gonna take
And say what we don't wanna say
You can't break a heart halfway
Stay with me, love, stay with me, love
Wide awake
[Verse 2]
I see you in my dreams
So vivid when I'm sleeping
Envy and evergreen
Give me something to believe in
[PreChorus]
Ooh, I'm over under undecided
Ooh, tell me stories and I'll write 'em
[Chorus]
Take, take what we're just gonna take
And say what we don't wanna say
You can't break a heart halfway
Stay with me, love, stay with me, love
Wide awake
[Bridge]
We play these games
We're simply broken pieces
The chemicals release us
We play these games
We're simply broken pieces
The chemicals release us
[Chorus]
Take, take what we're just gonna take
And say what we don't wanna say
And you can't break a heart halfway
Stay with me, love, stay with me, love
Wide awake
[Outro]
Stay with me, love, stay with me, love
Wide awake
Stay with me, love, stay with me, love
Wide awake
Stay with me, love, stay with me, love
Wide awake
Stay with me, love, stay with me, love
Wide awake
