Falling Awake

In spite of my cheerful demeanor

I'm afraid to set foot in the world

We watch the same dead clocks

These small hands need to meet the larger again



And I chose a road, the one I didn't know

Now it has brought me here

The stories I've have gathered in travels,

I wouldn't trade for the years back



There's a war inside,

I need something to get me through this

Without you, am I ever myself?

The only thing holding us back is us

(?)

And ghosts from the last time

Are all the same



We can live again [x3]



All we can do is try and try and try and try to change

For ourselves



The night has been my covering

And the day is my disguise

But I can't seem to stay far enough away

From self created lies



For those of you who question your purpose

Look inside the eyes staring back at you

Past your devil

They long for purpose too

And maybe that's yours, I know cause it's mine



You are the second-hand air that I breathe

And these songs were made for you to sing before me

And they are more than just sound

And you are more than just an audience

This is the family that I've found



The night has been my covering

And the day is my disguise

But I can't seem to stay far enough away,

From self created lies



I chose a road, and now I know

Nothing will ever come easy



I chose this road

Staying asleep is worse than falling awake

I chose this road

Standing asleep is worse than falling awake
