Awake Lyrics - Assemblage 23

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 

CH 

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
