Lyrics
The Awakening
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Silent voices call to me again
Hidden faces bear the scars of pain
Still I turn from the pleas that draw me forth
Ignorant of who I am
I have always felt there was a truth
Hidden beneath the veneer we see
Yet when the truth revealed itself to me
I denied its existence
Lives behind the veil
Exist within a dream
As ignorance
Requite with bliss
Tear through the veil
Reveal the hollow dream
And innocence
Reward with peace
Once I was afraid
Now I see
The truth unfold
My fear is gone
And in it's place
A new found faith
The man I love is the One
Lives behind the veil
Exist within a dream
As ignorance
Requite with bliss
Tear through the veil
Reveal the hollow dream
And innocence
Reward with peace
Break the ties that bind us to this life
Show them a world that transcends the lies
As we turn to the pleas that draw us forth
Confident of who we are
I fought the doubts instilled within me
And found the truth I knew existed
I will show them a world beyond this
Where anything is possible
