Wake Lyrics by Demon Hunter

True Defiance

2012

[Intro]
Lay your fear on the line and wake up

[Verse 1]
Now solitude of will has held you still against that wall
Dividing soul from self, you cannot help but to dissolve
Back down

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t come crying for help when the fire surrounds you
When desperation calls you will obey
Don’t you follow the mass to an endless grave
You’ve cut that vital main, now...

[Chorus]
Lay your fear on the line and wake up
Lifeless years, unholy tears
Throw your panic aside and let go
Pain will bring to light your fears

[Verse 2]
The gravity of death is on your breath, it dwells inside
Hold fast to your distraction, feed ambivalence your time
Back down

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t come crying for help when the fire surrounds you
When desperation calls you will obey
Don’t you follow the mass to an endless grave
You’ve cut that vital main, now...

[Chorus]
Lay your fear on the line and wake up
Lifeless years, unholy tears
Throw your panic aside and let go
Pain will bring to light your fears

[Breakdown]
Hold your breath, retain your silence
I don’t buy your self-reliant soul

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t come crying for help when the fire surrounds you
When desperation calls you will obey
Don’t you follow the mass to an endless grave
You’ve cut that vital main, now...

[Chorus]
Lay your fear on the line and wake up
Lifeless years, unholy tears
Throw your panic aside and let go
Pain will bring to light your fears now
