I'm wide awake I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake Yeah, I was in the dark I was falling hard With an open heart I'm wide awake How did I read the stars so wrong? I'm wide awake And now it's clear to me That everything you see Ain't always what it seems I'm wide awake Yeah, I was dreaming for so long
[Pre-Chorus]I wish I knew then What I know now Wouldn't dive in Wouldn't bow down Gravity hurts You made it so sweet 'Til I woke up on On the concrete
[Chorus]Falling from cloud nine Crashing from the high I'm letting go tonight Yeah, I'm falling from cloud nine
I'm wide awake Not losing any sleep I picked up every piece And landed on my feet I'm wide awake Need nothing to complete myself, no
I'm wide awake Yeah, I am born again Out of the lion's den I don't have to pretend [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/wide-awake-lyrics-katy-perry.html ] And it's too late The story's over now, the end
[Pre-Chorus]I wish I knew then What I know now Wouldn't dive in Wouldn't bow down Gravity hurts You made it so sweet 'Til I woke up on On the concrete
[Chorus]Falling from cloud nine (it was out of the blue) I'm crashing from the high I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting you go) I'm falling from cloud nine
I'm wide awake Thunder rumbling Castles crumbling I'm wide awake I am trying to hold on I'm wide awake God knows that I tried Seeing the bright side I'm wide awake I'm not blind anymore...
I'm wide awake I'm wide awake
[Chorus]Yeah, I'm falling from cloud nine (it was out of the blue) I'm crashing from the high You know I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting you go) I'm falling from cloud nine
I'm wide awake I'm wide awake I'm wide awake I'm wide awake I'm wide awake

I HAVE BEEN ON THE TOP WITH ADMIRATION BUT WAS LIVING MY HUSBANDS LIFE NOT MINE. IF YOU HAVE SOMEONE SO TRUE TO THEMSELVES AND NOBEL BUT DENIED TRUTH BY OTHERS ENVY AND JEALOUSY EYES. BUT I CAN NEVER BE BOUGHT! AND KNOW WE HAVE A VOICE AND TO NOT EVER SUBMISS OURSELEVES. MONEY GIVES PHYSICAL COMFORT AND BEAUTY BUT NOT SOUL BEAUTY IF THIS IS YOUR WISH (?). FOR TRUE LOVE FOR OURSELVES OR LIFE. IS FREE FALL AND DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE FALL BECAUSE ITIS MY CALL FOR TRUE PEOPLE. IT WAS MY CALL. THE TRUE --REAL PEOPLE AREN'T THE ONE'S CONTROLLED BY MONEY. THE BEST OF FRIENDS ARE FOUND FALLEN AND WE FIND EACH OTHER AND CLIMB TOGETHER. AND FOUND AGAIN.

I think this songs about like when your crushing on a guy you don't really know and in your dreams he's perfect and sweet. but, when you get to know him you find out that he's like a cruel jerk. That's my defintion :)

I love this song.. As a musician I can really appreciate the ambiguity of this song. It speaks so strongly about HER feelings and emotions but the lyrics are open enough for all of us to relate it to our own experiences. It is a beautiful reflection on Katy's and many many others constant message to the world: we r all individual and that makes us beautiful.
