Take Flight

Wake me up The forces that fuel my ambition are coming undone All of the meaning derived from existence Cast into the sun And as I stare into the void Contemplating my despair A thief of joy leaves me ransacked Ascend, never again This crippled fantasy cannot mend I feel the end closing in on me now Take another breath and dream again Wake up from the nightmare that you live Don't let your heart be reduced to a hollow shell I know the truth still remains clear The truth still remains Vanity consuming me I realize now I've lost my way Sleeping for days But never dreaming This blight plagues every night 'Til I've forgotten why I still fight And now I question why I'm alive, oh Why am I still here? Forever biding my time at the edge of a knife Take another breath and dream again Wake up from the nightmare that you live Don't let your heart be reduced to a hollow shell I know the truth still remains clear Face the very fear that holds you in Break free from your cage of porcelain Throw all your doubts to the wind and you'll find yourself Never forget why you came here I know you're scared, but Don't let it hold you back Now I see a faint light Close your eyes, follow me down I know there's still a piece of me left to be saved One day we'll take flight We'll take flight Endlessly, I'm counting the days, and writhing in pain Wash away my dismay, absolve me of blame Wake me Why am I still here? Take another breath and dream again Wake up from the nightmare that you live Don't let your heart be reduced to a hollow shell I know the truth still remains clear Face the very fear that holds you in Break free from your cage of porcelain Throw all your doubts to the wind and you'll find yourself Never forget why you came here Never forget why you came here!
