Awakened Lyrics

I stand

Watching the waves

Washing away

Every dream I ever made

I have awakened

From eternal sleep

I rise

Destined to die

Built for demise

Facing the overwhelming tide

But I will ascend for eternity

In the reverberating silence of isolation

I stand alone

Among echoes

Of everything I was and will be

It exists in me

But I feel the weight eluding me

Upon the threshold of my heavenly throne

I see the stars still out of reach

Unlike the sea

Mirroring the heavens corporeally

I finally perceive this destiny of absurdity

And as the final breath of

My ambition escapes me

I finally perceive my destiny

As I become entombed

Upon my throne

I fade into despondency

But still I

Stand

Watching the waves

Washing away

Every dream I ever made

I have awakened

To my apathy

Amidst the darkness of my desolation

I feel the throes of destiny

Beseeching me

There is no paradise to run to

No place to escape the futility of my being

Open my eyes just to realise I've died

Chasing purpose to the surface just to see

In chasing a dream of ascendency

I only found apathy

Emptiness pervading every fabric of me

As the albatross awakens tearing my heart out

Leaving me to yearn for heaven, without a dream to

Comfort me from the truth that heaven's not there

The ocean shimmers, tantalising

Glistening in the light of the stars out of reach

Staring down from the heavens, uncaring

Is a destiny of apathy the only thing awaiting me

As the final breath of

My ambition escapes me

I finally perceive my destiny

As I become entombed

Upon my throne

I fade into despondency

I'm awakened

I stand

Watching the waves

Washing away

Every dream I ever made

I will ascend

As I descend

I will descend beneath the break

Return me to the bliss of the depths

Where, in ignorance, my life made sense

Unbound from erroneous dreams, yet now

Emptiness is all I feel

I stand

Watching the waves

Washing away

Every dream I ever made

I have awakened

From eternal sleep

I rise

Destined to die

Built for demise

Embracing the encroaching tide

I will ascend

As I descend

I will ascend beyond the sea
