Awoken
Saviour Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We're all just pissed off sons of bitches
With the wrong attitude, spitting and tripping
Listen kids we've got a lot to learn
Listen up, listen
Redeem the wealth of your creation
Rediscover inspiration
Redeem the wealth of your creation
And rediscover hope
The party's just begun
A rediscovered confidence
To let nothing deflate me
Owing all to a single precept
An old man once told me
Have fun while we're still young
Now letting go of everything I despised
To sweeten the bitterness
The thoughts when I realised
Have fun while we're still young
And maybe only on the inside
As our ageing skin conceals the boy within
But it doesn't matter unless you make it matter
This life is what you make it
For the day will come
Judgment day will come
I will return triumphant
Judgment day will come
We will return triumphant
You keep acting the part, just be yourself for fuck sake
Recognize there's no better time to let it go
Making holes with a dagger to my chest
To drain the emptiness
The feeling when I realised
Have fun while we're still young
Forever on the inside
Time will never age us
For we are young
Forever on the inside




Until judgment day comes
We will return triumphant
