Awake lyrics

We walk the walls in this freak of flesh

Along the twists of our visceral mesh

Against the powerflow of motionless flood

It's an experience of flesh and blood

I face the wave of this gravity

I face the Beauty in the things i can't see

I face the Weakness that has rendered me strong

I face the fate of my existence head on

Ready to Bleed

Ready to Feel

Ready to Love

V1
Iâm still trying to figure out how to tell you I was wrong
I canât fill the emptiness inside since youâve been gone
So is it you or is it me?
I know I said things that I didnât mean
But you shouldâve known me by now
You shouldâve known me

Chorus
If you believed
When I said
Iâd be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all

V1
To find this love of mine
Iâd walk through wind and fire
Forever and always

These hollow hands reach out
For you to touch me now
Forever and always

Chorus
Dead inside
My heart and soul flatlines
Put your mouth on mine
And bring me back to life
Dead inside
No other satisfies
My blood runs dry
Take my life
Save me from this death inside

V2

V1
I went to bed I was thinking about you
Ainât the same since Iâm living without you
All the memories are getting colder
All the things that I wanna do over

Went to bed I was thinking about you
I wanna talk and laugh like we used to
When I see you in my dreams at night
Itâs so real but itâs in my mind

Pre
And now
I guess
This is as good as it gets

Chorus:

V1
Forgive me now cause I
Have been unfaithful
Donât ask me why cause I donât know

So many times Iâve tried
But was unable
But this heart belongs to you alone

Chorus
Now Iâm in our secret place
Alone in your embrace
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven

All the promises and lies
All the times I compromise
All the times you were denied

I'm just a step away
I'm a just a breath away
Losing my faith today
JEN: Falling off the edge today

I am just a man
Not superhuman
JEN: I'm not superhuman
Someone save me from the hate

It's just another war
Just another family torn
JEN: Falling from my feet today
Just a step from the edge
Just another day in the world we live

I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero

V1
Letâs get the story straight
You were a poison
You flooded through my veins
You left me broken
You tried to make me think
That the blame was all on me
With the pain you put me through
And now I know that itâs not me itâs you

Chorus
Itâs not me itâs you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things you say and do
Itâs you

V1
Hey Lucy, I remember your name
I left a dozen roses on your grave today
Iâm in the grass on my knees, wipe the leaves away
I just came to talk for a while
I got some things I need to say

Chorus
Now that itâs over
I just wanna hold her
Iâd give up all the world to see that little piece of heaven looking
back at me
Now that itâs over
I just wanna hold her

The secret side of me,
I'll never let you see.
I keep it caged but I can't control it.
So stay away from me,
The beast is ugly.
I feel the rage and I just can't hold it.

It's scratchin' on the walls,
In the closet, in the halls.
It comes awake and I can't control it.
Hidin' under the bed,
In my body, in my head.
Why won't somebody come and save me from this
Make it end.

V1
Do you know what itâs like when
Youâre scared to see yourself
Do you know what itâs like when
You wish you were someone else
Who didnât need your help to get by
Do you know what itâs like
To wanna surrender

Chorus
I donât wanna feel like this tomorrow
I donât wanna live like this today
Make me feel better
I wanna feel better
Stay with me here

V1
Tick tock hear the clock countdown
Wish the minute hand could be rewound
So much to do and so much I need to say
Will tomorrow be too late

Feel the moment slip into the past
Like sand through an hourglass
In the madness I guess I just forget
To do all the things I said

Pre
Time passes by
Never thought Iâd wind up
One step behind
Now Iâve made my mind up

Chorus

V1
Iâm done wondering where youâve been
All night long when youâre out with your friends
All you say, that the matterâs over
But now that chapterâs over

Iâm done trusting you itâs ended
Even after I catch you red handed
You couldâve been my only one
But now your chance is gone

Chorus
You shouldâve when you couldâve

Sometimes I wonder what life's about
Sometimes I wonder why the lights are out
Sometimes I wonder why I like to shout
Sometimes I wonder, what the lies are about
Sometimes I see things I shouldn't have seen
Sometimes I wonder why, I'm a hood and a fiend
Sometimes I look at what I've become and cry
Sometimes I, get on that BULLSHIT and be ready to die

V1
if I wasnât here tomorrow would anybody care
if my time was up Iâd wanna know
You were happy I was there

if I wasnât here tomorrow would anyone lose sleep
if I wasnât hard and hollow
Then maybe you would miss me

Pre
I know Iâm a mess and I wanna be someone
Someone that Iâd like better
I can never forget, so donât remind me of it forever
