Assemblage 23 Awake Lyrics

Awake Lyrics

I am lost

The footprints that I left have disappeared

For now I am
driving blind



Accelerate

Without a destination to welcome
me

This road is just an endless loop 



CHORUS

Every
time I close my eyes

The noise inside me amplifies

I can't
escape

I relive every moment of the day

Every misstep I have made


Finds a way it can invade

My every thought

And this is why I
find myself awake



Directionless 

The letters on the signs
have long since faded

The sky conspires to swallow me



Paid
the price

For burning all the maps to warm myself

I threw their
ashes to the wind



(CH)



Walk away

Time to leave
the realm of the familiar

To find a place where sleep can come



Hesitate

For one last time I shout into the sky

To wake the ones
I'll leave behind 



(CH) x 2
