Awake for the Sunrise Songtext
I didn′t want to be awake for the sunrise
But my heart wouldn't let me rest
I didn′t want to see the light of the morning
With an aching in my chest
So does fire beget fire
As a warning? As a test?
I only wanted to know you better
I only thought that I knew you best
I didn't think I was a terrible liar
But I am when I need it most
Making a sorry attempt at compassion
With a hand halfway down my throat
So does life carry forth
If the station is remote?
Hope is still keeping my head above water
'Til the moment before I choke
There is a futurе where we′rе resting easy
On the other side of us
But I′d rather feel the full wrath of destruction
Than remember the things I've done
I gave up on that life
As I gave myself to you
And I deserve it, the very worst of it
I deserve it, I know I do
And I deserve it, the very worst of it
I deserve it, I know I do
But my heart wouldn't let me rest
I didn′t want to see the light of the morning
With an aching in my chest
So does fire beget fire
As a warning? As a test?
I only wanted to know you better
I only thought that I knew you best
I didn't think I was a terrible liar
But I am when I need it most
Making a sorry attempt at compassion
With a hand halfway down my throat
So does life carry forth
If the station is remote?
Hope is still keeping my head above water
'Til the moment before I choke
There is a futurе where we′rе resting easy
On the other side of us
But I′d rather feel the full wrath of destruction
Than remember the things I've done
I gave up on that life
As I gave myself to you
And I deserve it, the very worst of it
I deserve it, I know I do
And I deserve it, the very worst of it
I deserve it, I know I do
