Wake Up
Wake up
Wires click to create
Thoughts crashing like waves
They come and go
Lines begin to trace
Hues starting to fall
Warm shades of embrace
Light holding it all
Shouts heard in the night
Blown through the unknown
Shouts heard in the night
Won't leave you alone
Eyes open wide
Unveil the design
Pent up inside
Trailblazing
Heart racing
Conceived in the clouds
Now working it down
Fresh out of the flames
Displayed on the wall
Bird out of the cage
Flying over it all
Then all at once
The winds changing
Stones cast from the crowd
Walls crumbling down
The voices call
And the dosage is rough
No it was never enough
You'll never match
Up
Won't make the cut
Shouldn't reach for the sky
It's foolish to try
And over time
You begin to find
Doubt underlined
So burn hatred
Fill these pages
Redefine these empty places
Sink the ships
And raise the flag
We'll storm the coast
And never look back
Snow days
Cold case
Under five feet of
Roadways
Grey haze
Lost in empty space
When fire
Burns higher
Desire
Warms what surrounds
Break old ways
With new days
The blue blaze
Burns with the sound
Wake up
Wake up
No it was never enough
You'll never match
Up
Won't make the cut
Shouldn't reach for the sky
It's foolish to try
And over time
You begin to find
Doubt underlined
So burn hatred
Fill these pages
Redefine these empty places
Sink the ships
And raise the flag
We'll storm the coast
And never look back
Wires click to create
Thoughts crashing like waves
They come and go
Lines begin to trace
Hues starting to fall
Warm shades of embrace
Light holding it all
Shouts heard in the night
Blown through the unknown
Shouts heard in the night
Won't leave you alone
Eyes open wide
Unveil the design
Pent up inside
Trailblazing
Heart racing
Conceived in the clouds
Now working it down
Fresh out of the flames
Displayed on the wall
Bird out of the cage
Flying over it all
Then all at once

And the dosage is rough
No it was never enough
