Lyrics
Carried away by the undertow
Dragged by the sunlight to a world unknown
Blazing skies deliver me
from my catatonic fragility
I wander hopelessly
adrift on a godless sea
from the sun baked chrysalis I rise
as my gaze begins to crystalise
Breathing the air of
This elysian high
Lost in the empire
Of a bloodless sky
The earth around reaches up
to pull me down
I stumble as I melt into the soil
The boiling sun takes hold
My roots below
A new connection starts to grow
The voices overwhelming
My breathless lips
And tired eyes
I realise
I’m not alone
Carried away by the undertow
Dragged by the sunlight to a world unknown
Go back to where you came from
An overwhelming voice inside
go back to where you came from
we see the evil in your eyes
The voices growing distant
My eyes are growing dark
There’s something in my bloodstream now
That’s slowing down my heart
It blurs my search for meaning
And others of my kind
The dust is kicking up to cloud my disconnected mind
Second follows second
And time slows to a crawl
As here I wait with baited breath
For paradise to fall
No sun, no sky
No remains or reasons why
My world is being swallowed by the ever growing night
And something reaches out to me
To pull me from my reverie
and stare into my soul
all at once
‘I am home’
Woken from my slumber
(woken from my slumber
welcome to your future)
A forest the size of an ocean
Speaks with a voice like a tide
Unrelenting, unforgiving motion
Stirs something stronger inside
When it calls I’m powerless to fight it
Because part of it is part of me
My will and my ambition is inside it
Adrift on a godless sea
Woken from my slumber
We are one another
Woken from my slumber
We are one another
Tear Apart
who you are
build it back
stronger
Breathing the air of
This elysian high
Lost in the empire
Of a bloodless sky
This fading light has touched my soul
An ever changing world of my own
And all I want is truth and meaning
Caution shapes my every feeling
Could this be the way to answers I’ve been searching for?
All these things I have become
Have only made me more
