Awakening

Face down with the LA curbside endings
With the ones and zeros.
Downtown was the perfect place to hide.
The first star that I saw last night was a headlight
Of a man-made sky, but man- made never made our dreams collide,
Collide.
Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain,
We´re awakening
Here we are now with our desperate youth and the pain,
We´re awakening
Maybe it´s called ambition, you´ve been talking in your sleep
About a dream, we´re awakening
Last week found me living for nothing but deadlines,
With my dead beat sky but, this town doesn´t look the same tonight
These dreams started singing to me out of nowhere
And in all my life I don´t know that I ever felt so alive,
Alive
I want to wake up kicking and screaming
I want to wake up kicking and screaming
I want to know that my heart´s still beating
It´s beating,
I´m bleeding
I want to wake up kicking and screaming
I want to live like I know what I´m leaving
I want to know that my heart´s still beating
It´s beating... it´s beating...
I´m bleeding
With the ones and zeros.
