Awake Lyrics by RED SUN RISING

Polyester Zeal

2015

[Verse 1]
I need security too
To gain some traction here
A chain reaction telling me
If this is all it will ever be
Mistakes I made in theory
I need to clear the air
Embrace the fear, afraid to know
If this is all it will ever be

[Chorus]
I watched the rain erase us all
Through the eyes of a waterfall
I bought the rights to own the air
So I can steal you, the breath from me
I will break your fall
And I will make you stay awake
I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be

[Verse 2]
What insecurity chose
But too polite to share
It always makes sense when not aware
That this is all that you'll ever be
It took the crack of a smile
To turn my head and stare
It made me forget what came to be
I'm not to you what you are to me

[Chorus]
I watched the rain erase us all
Through the eyes of a waterfall
I bought the rights to own the air
So I can steal you, the breath from me
I will break your fall
And I will make you stay
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be

[Outro]
And later down the line
You'll figure out
It's easier to hide
Lay it on the line
And figure out
It's easier to lie

[Outro]
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
This is all that I'll ever be, this is all
