Awake

Man down
 This hardened shell is broken
 My fate is bound to what I've done
 Regrets - I shuffle down the hallway
 Precious time - It's all gone overboard
 Here is your calm down pill
 I'll never be the same - It'll never be the same
 With eyes wide open - My body's floating down the river
 This live - What have I confined you for? It's all inside - It's all in silence
 When the raven gets its way
 A Million thoughts are swept away
 And then you leave it all
 You leave it all behind
 And maybe next time we'll meet again
 And maybe I'll be less of a bitter man
 When I feel more
 I refuse to pay the ferryman - I'm so attached to my temple
 He has to burn it down to get me
 Ebony demon, shriek all you want - I'm not tagging along
 The shade, the burning blackness - It is my protector
 Fear before the fall - I can't grasp it all
 But at least I'm trying
 A light, a smoldering cinder
 Getting colder, ashen
 And letting all this go
 I'm not letting go
 I'm not really done here
 I won't let go
 ♪
 Life's to short to be wrong
 ♪
 And maybe next time we'll meet again
 And maybe I'll be less of a bitter man
 And if I could do it all over again
 I'd be the same man all over again
 When I feel more
