Billed as the final chapter of the era, 'Wide Awake' unsurprisingly sees Perry in reflective mode. "I wish I knew then what I know now/ Wouldn't dive in, wouldn't bow down," she insists over a blend of anthemic drums and fairytale piano courtesy of Dr Luke. "Thunder rumbling, castles crumbling/ I am trying to hold on," she continues; leaving us to assume that the next time we hear from her, it will a very different Katy Perry.
