Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Are you awake?
I've been thinking through some things
Been counting their babies and their diamond wedding rings
Are you awake?
I feel a sadness in my skin
It happens sometimes now
[Verse 2]
Are you awake?
I don't remember when we last spoke
I probably overshared or made some tasteless joke
Are you awake?
I miss the streetlights and the smoke
It happens sometimes now
[Chorus]
Please give me a sign
Give me a Hollywood line
Some feelings don't fade away with space and time
It's a state of mind
It's just a state of mind
[Verse 3]
Hometown hero is a poisoned chalice choice
If they all love you, you're just destined to disappoint
Are you awake?
I miss the texture of your voice
It happens more often now
[Chorus]
Please give me a sign
Give me a Hollywood line
Some feelings don't fade away with space and time
It's a state of mind
It's just a state of mind
[Outro]
Some feelings don't fade away with space and time
It's a state of mind
It's just a state of mind
It's just a state of mind
