Not Alone (Acoustic) (Reissue Bonus Track)

(album: The Awakening - 2016)

I've fallen down darkness is the victor
Demons crowd around dancing as they whisper
Words of impending doom
Everything is fine, yo it's all in your mind… chill
It's in my head but I can't take this lightly
These thoughts are mine and that makes them frightening
I may be leaving soon

They gather around you as you drown
Now it's time to put on your face
Behind this cloak is just a ghost
Jealous of every single breath you take

You're standing strong
But it seems the ground is shaking
You're not alone
We're standing with you till the end
Ohh ohh
I know your heart is aching
Ohh ohh
We're standing with you till the end

How can a sound of joy be so haunting?
They drag me down laughing as they taunt me
With words of impending doom
I got your back, just try to relax… chill
The end is near a distant oasis
No longer complacent I can escape this
I may be leaving soon

You're standing strong
But it seems the ground is shaking
You're not alone
We're standing with you till the end
Ohh ohh
I know your heart is aching
Ohh ohh
We're standing with you till the end

See it all starts with bliss as it plants a kiss right upon your temple
Then your problems pile on top of you impossible to block these issues
Temperatures rising off the charts, feeling like a stranger in my skin
And I'm so sorry that I was hateful pain loses and anger wins
I try to be thoughtless but regardless the darkness is closing in
When I fall apart will you find it in your heart to pick me up again
A shattered me or scattered debris of the lucid human I used to be
But they can't know the demons I carry I'm bearing a chilled disease

I hear
Voices emanating so familiar and happy
The chatter of Family and friends laughing
They gather around you as you drown
Now it's time to put on your face
Behind this cloak is just a ghost
Jealous of every single breath you take

You're standing strong
But it seems the ground is shaking
You're not alone (Just know you're not alone)
We're standing with you till the end
Ohh ohh
I know your heart is aching
Ohh ohh
We're standing with you till the end
