Awake! I've been sleeping (Eph. 5:14)!
I've been restless and reckless,
I've jeopardized my viability.
This time it's compromised my excuse to say I'm okay when I'm not!
I'd love to play the idiot but I knew where it would get me all along!
My intent was to make you known.
But I said, "Let go of me!"
Instead, I've filled myself with momentary satisfaction.
It's taste stained upon my mind.
This is not me! This is not me! No, this isn't me!
Panic sets to free your mind of sanity.
So, I;ve been a passenger and I've just been passing through.
Is all I want contained in all of me? Contained in all of me?!
Stop saying, "it's good enough and we're just human. We're just human!"
To justify is to lose and failure, well, it's where we all come from.
Just 'cause you're here doesn't mean that you have to say.
When did we end up like this?
When did we sacrifice ourselves to please our selfishness and stand so right for being wrong?
And soon you'll see the happiness recede.
Our investments have been made in failing institutions.
The truth, I'll testify, oh, man, it's hard to swallow.
I've covered my carelessness with a fraud.
What did I assure myself I was looking for?
Intuition left for reasoning?
I've come up from the grave and met you face to face.
Awake! Awake! I'm awake!
I've come up from the grave and met you face to face.
Awake! Awake! I'm awake!
I've come up from the grave and met you face to face.
Awake! I'm awake! I'm awake! I'm awake!
