Sanctuary
Daybreak Embrace Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I chose to leave it all
It's so vivid as I recall
Faded signs of a fall
Staring me into the eye
Can I be so strong
Now I'm letting go what's inside of me
It seems like it's beem so long
Now I stare blank
At the world around me
Losing faith is the way you found me
Everyday
I see you grow colder
And I know it's over
Never be a part of your life
Echoes of long ago
Words still hang in the air
You'll find in my disguise
Is a man who just can't care
Begging for a sign that I need to know
I'm here
After all the things you said to me
Constantly testing me
Will my head ever be clear?
And now I stare blank
At the world around me
Losing faith I the way you found me
Everyday
I see you grow colder
And I know it's over
So bad I want to stop time
That's the only way I'll be a part of your life
It's just one more day
It's just one more day
I stare blank
At the world around me
Losing faith I the way you found me
Everyday
I see you grow colder
And I know it's over
And I know it's just one more day
It's just one more day
(There will come a day my heart rund dry
My words will die and I will join them in oblivion
But hopefully meaningless feeling will go away)

So many years ago
It has been a long time since I made a significant choice
I chose to leave it all
I made a decision to abandon everything
It's so vivid as I recall
My memories of leaving are still very clear
Faded signs of a fall
The evidence of failure has been lost over time
Staring me into the eye
The evidence of failure is prominent and confronting me
Can I be so strong
I question whether I have the strength to face my past mistakes
Now I'm letting go what's inside of me
I am releasing my emotional baggage
It seems like it's been so long
The process of letting go has taken a long time
Now I stare blank
I feel numb and disconnected
At the world around me
I observe my surroundings without feeling connected to them
Losing faith is the way you found me
I became disillusioned with life because of the way you treated me
Everyday
Each day that passes
I see you grow colder
I observe you becoming more distant and indifferent
And I know it's over
I am aware our relationship is finished
Never be a part of your life
I have accepted that I will never have a place in your life
Echoes of long ago
The sounds of the past continue to resonate
Words still hang in the air
The things you said remain with me
You'll find in my disguise
If you look closer, you will see that I am hiding my true feelings
Is a man who just can't care
I have become numb and apathetic
Begging for a sign that I need to know
I am desperate for a clear indication of what I should do
I'm here
I am present and ready to face my problems
After all the things you said to me
Despite everything you said to me
Constantly testing me
You continually pushed me to my limits
Will my head ever be clear?
I question whether I will ever have clarity of mind
And now I stare blank
I feel numb and disconnected
At the world around me
I observe my surroundings without feeling connected to them
Losing faith I the way you found me
I became disillusioned with life because of the way you treated me
So bad I want to stop time
I am so desperate to change things that I wish I could freeze time
That's the only way I'll be a part of your life
If I could stop time, I might have a chance to be part of your life
It's just one more day
I am taking things one day at a time
And I know it's just one more day
I recognize that each day brings me closer to my goals
There will come a day my heart runs dry
I am aware that I may lose my passion in the future
My words will die and I will join them in oblivion
My thoughts and inspiration will eventually fade away
But hopefully meaningless feeling will go away
Hopefully, the negative emotions I feel will disappear with time

@nightmelody777hiatus2
damn
I love these random ppl who writing the text in =)
@chrissdevano
1. Question mark after “Can I be so strong”
2. Blank line before the chorus (you did it the first time but not the second and third)
3. Losing faith “is” the way you found me, not “I”. Again, you did this right in the first chorus, but not the second and third
4. Remove “And I know it’s over” for the last chorus
5. The last two “It’s just one more day”s are missing
Hope this helped :)
Ty for the lyrics btw
