Original song lyrics

Awaken

                   (Intro)

       (verse 1 bouncy and light)

Dusk and dawn I'm burning bright.

Lift my heart into the night

Softly whispering to the rioting waves

Throw your love into the ocean

With all other emotion

And live by chance under the lightning rain.

                (chorus)

We speak truth in lies

And I know someday we'll rise.

I am more than a man

I'm the power in your hands.

And every word you breathe into the air

Is an answer to my prayers.

To dance before eyes of sin

how we're afraid of our own awakening.

                        (verse 2)

We'll loose our name and trace our steps.

Lotus pedals where he wept.

Something's bubbling deep in my soul.

Well all the answers aren't clear.

Autumn eyes shine brightest dear.

Just as a sunset from a hell hole.

                   (chorus)

          (bridge crescendo)

And the question I am.

Is the answer to the setting sun.

Every piece of tumbling sand.

Is a shard of my forgotten love

Oh oh

oh oh

       (verse 4 slight retardation)

Dusk until dawn I'm burning bright.

Lift my heart into the night

Softly whispering to the rioting waves.

And if you put your hand in mine

You'll never know what it means to fly

And never forget the light me made

  (Quickly retards to a finish on C)
