I. Awake Lyrics

Awake
Me from this dream of flame
From a world of smoke
A nightmare of ash
It's clouding all my thoughts
Wake me


I've tossed and I've turned
Gained no rest despite my sleep
My clothes smell of fire
And I'm coughing up the tar
Lungs blackened by the smoke
That I have breathed in

This vision I cannot shake

I have the matches in my hand
And watch as it all crumbles to ash to dirt
And returns to earth

I have to clear my head
And tell myself that it's not real
It's not real

I feel a presence here
I smell the kerosene
And there she stood
With his hand at her throat
He lifted the match
For me to see
A final goodbye
A dropped so I could watch
As they both immolate
