Awake
Griffin L.O.G. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And though the day goes her light stays with me
Tonight im frail tonight im fragile
Tonight its breaking free
Tonight you fail to walk that hundred miles
To the coast and the grey sea
And the siren. . . for she calls to me
Praying:Won't you follow. . .
Bid me hollow
Find these depths
Bereft in death past then is you and i
Can't you see. . .
Can't you see. . .
I could've seen though id like to be blind
And she may weep though her pain is not mine
Tonight I dream tonight I sleep smile
Tonight before the sea
Tonight I sail. . .
To the coast from the grey sea
And the day. . . by the sunbeams. . .
And humming yell to glory
You broke my heart oh. . . you broke my heart
