Story Behind The Song
Written around the sound of the echoing guitar. The protagonist is lost in his own fog and looking for help, but feels isolated.
The female voice comes in to tell us a little more of his story in the second verse.
Song Description
A heavy goth rocker that tugs at the doubts that we all have - do we need to go through this alone? Are we in a dream?
Offering no real answers, but showing, in the second verse, that, sometimes, we do this to ourselves.

Lyrics
The past and the future are all bleeding in my head
Losing my mind I'm searching for a thread
looking for salvation that slowly slipping away
Wake me
Wake me
AS the sun rises high above
Wake me
As the world kills all my love
I still remember the first time that you laughed
And the darkness flew away
I still remember the
first time you went away
And burned it all to the ground
Wake me
Wake me
AS the sun rises high above
Wake me
As the world kills all my love
The end is all alone
I stand here all alone
looking for the light
Wake me
Wake me
AS the sun rises high above
Wake me
As the world kills all my love
