Futile Awakening
You know I tried to reach you
but you just slapped away my hand
Why implore or beseech you
when you don't want to understand
You're too afraid to face me
as I give chase haphazardly
hoping to retain validity
vividly in your memory
Like trying to wake the dead
sleeping beauty in her bed
poisonous kisses in my head
the bitten apple of my disgust
Thats all you ever want
(Wake up)
thats all you ever wanted
(Wake up)
thats all you ever need
(Wake up)
thats all you ever needed
Remain at rest my dear
leave my pleas to fall on deaf ears
Stay comatose my precious
restless attempts to rescue us.
I'm not the boogeyman
I'm not the one to run from
I have done all I can
to quell all that you succumbed
All I can do is dream
I only can remember
and think of what could have been
before it was dismembered
