Wake

We lie asleep as the night passes by

Ignoring the stars that urge us to light

Accepting a cycle of war and living a lie

Giving up before even trying the fight

I refuse to sit back and watch the world

Be ripped apart at its seams, unfurled

Unite and begin the howl against the moon

Kindle your heart and let the chains be strewn

The blood that is spilt may never be found

Darkness cascades, our struggles make no sound

Burn away the shadows, send silence to its cave

Too long have we been lying, truth is we are slaves

Tear down any cage that restricts you

Shine upon the broken path, now true

Slumbered for so long, but everything is at stake

Rise as light from darkness, as it is time to wake
