Awaken me
Recovery
Can’t seem to find any peace of mind
Thoughts echoing in my head
Your memory is deafening when you’re not in my bed
‘Cause every time I think about you’s like a black cloud
I’m blacking out again
You never told me that it’d be like this, it’s too hard to forgive
Awaken me, recovery
I never knew that without you I’d lose the strength I need
Now that you’re gone, I can’t move on
It’s like you’re hunting me
‘Cause every time I think about you’s like a black cloud
I’m blacking out again
You never told me that it’d be like this, it’s too hard to forgive
Awaken me, recovery
Ever since you’ve been gone, feels like I’ve been deceived
Emptiness, won’t you leave
Awaken, awaken me
I used to think that I deserved so much better
Used to think I was so god damn clever
I’m always learning the hard way
I need to learn so that you’ll stay
Stay with me
I know I’m a mess, fuck I’m a mess
And I think that I deserve this
If I must confess, be my witness
Be my witness
Awaken me, recovery
Ever since you’ve been gone, feels like I’ve been deceived
Emptiness, won’t you leave
Awaken, awaken me
