(Wake)

Rise and face this tired reality

(how you know the sum of your actions)

If you knew the damage you cause

(as i walk from you i hear the bitter laughter)

In your possession i shone brighter

(the fear of knowing)

What you hoped would remedy turns against me

(knowing you will hear my silence)

At this loss of wonder comes the turmoil

(cry, to make sense of my belonging)

Cast in to servility

(mislaid, all of my value and worth)

The subtle rape of your divorce

(thought, it echoes my defeat)

I've borne the rain

(in the prayer it would wash my sins)

I've danced the neon

(to the sound of my destruction)

Can i watch you live content/stand through it all

If you listen long enough/you may hear me break

(i'd wager my soul on the merit of your requital)

These delusions a whisper in the ears of the blind

There can be no blame for giving more than i had

What has now past remains to bury me

This life in place for my crimes

That lead me from heaven to impurity

Turn my rapture to nightmare

Waste each moment

Change comes to an end

Where would i search?

Where to climb?

Who to hold me should i fall?

Why continue since you are my being?

My hands are bound bound, i'm running

My hands are bound to your solutions

Wait no longer swear
