Lyrics:
Awakening

These are the desperate
Awake and unrested
They shake the trees and race the clouds
These are the keepers
Clutching the memories so tight against their breasts
Of earnest and ageless
The voices and faces long since headed west
There's poison that's still in their heads
Infecting their hearts as they search... and nothing's there

Lost are the desperate
They hide in the shadows
Of fallen hearts and broken hopes
The timid and doubtful
The sinners and powerless washed up in our minds
Ignoring tomorrow
Stitching together what's left of torn up times
Is the ice still freezing their souls
Keeping them stuck inside, this hole

What can they do
Where can they go
How can they change what's left behind

These are the desperate
Awake and unrested
Punching the shadows with all their might
Anxious and wandering
They fight for tomorrow
Stitching together torn up times
