The Awakening

And so it begins From a resting place of memories Lost so long ago The faint echoes of life Resounding from deep within the flow of time From what did these sands of fate begin to fall Forcing us to awaken Unveiling our eyes And for this moment... We stand, overwhelmed, beneath the sky Staring into salvation Entwined in this vow This attainment of reason A call to the life that's sleeping in our blood We'll drink of this faith Until it drowns our disbelief Purpose has chosen me For once, I can breathe And feed the shred of hope Buried deep within my lust Beneath the scars Beneath the shell of my content Entwined in this vow This attainment of reason A call to the life that's sleeping in our blood We'll drink of this faith Until it drowns our disbelief Awakened In this rite of passage Culling the thirst of our flesh With promise Seemingly written in the sky And for this moment... We drown in this faith
