From the recording Long Wait

Lyrics

When I Awake

When I awake I don’t need to be your reason
When I awake gonna be free from all these pieces
Make no mistake I’m gonna find that girl I knew
Gonna find some peace and a little magic too

& everything you said it all just came unglued
every angry text there’s only one thing left to do

You gave me no good reasons, just gave me one big lie
Ya still think I’m gonna beg you to stay, break down and cry
Well that’s not my life now make no mistake
It’s time to quit you and find my place

when I awake…

When I awake yeah I’m done being blind
See you for who you really are… get you outta my mind
Make no mistake I’m gonna find that world I knew
cry out for freedom no matter what I’ve got to do

& everything you said I know was untrue
every angry text there’s only one thing left to do

You gave me no good reasons, just gave me one big lie
Ya still think I’m gonna beg you to stay, break down and cry
Well that’s not my life now make no mistake
It’s time to quit you and find my place

You gave me no good reasons, just gave me one big lie
Ya still think I’m gonna beg you to stay, break down and cry
Well that’s not my life now make no mistake
It’s time to quit you and to find my place

You gave me no good reasons, just all your lies
You still think I’m gonna get down on my knees and beg you to stay
My oh my, I’m gonna find my life now and I’ll forget all your mistakes
It’s time to quit you and find my place

when I awake, when I awake, when I awake, when I awake
