"I'm Awake Now" is the second single released by the Goo Goo Dolls and featured on the Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare Soundtrack.
Like many of the early Goo Goo Doll singles, "I'm Awake Now" was released in a promotional format only. It was also included on the band's 2008 compilation album, Greatest Hits Vol. 2.
A music video featuring the band trying to find something to watch on the television was made. They find one of the A Nightmare on Elm Street films on TV and agree to watch that. As they begin to watch it they fall asleep and have a nightmare with Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund) terrorizing them. Several scenes from Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare are featured in the video as the band dreams of seeing the film at the theaters and getting scared and amazed at the same time.
