Wake Up (Shipwreck)

(album: Seattle Sessions - 2007)

It's a beautiful landscape
The sunset makes the coast look so clear
It's the kind that makes your heart break
But no one has those kind of problems here
And from the stage brush comes a dove
It comes to take away the ones you love
In camouflage comes a dove
And it comes to take away the ones you love

Wake up, you faithless
See your heart break
Gone

The wolf has found its way
To lead this foolish flock of sheep astray
And the clouds make fearful noises
And slowly turn black and shake
The darkness comes around you
The darkest come to take
And it will cut the life right from you
Leave you standing in the rain
With nowhere left to run to
And no one left to love you but the pain

Wake up, you faithless
See your heart break
Gone
It's no use trying to hold on

Wake up, you faithless
Won't be here for long
And this shipwreck will soon be gone (this shipwreck will soon be gone)
All that I know is what I've learned from troubled times
I've stood alone on the last shore with burning hand under black skies
I have been hunted through the valleys and the corners of my life
Fight or die

Wake up, you faithless
See your heart break
Gone
It's no use trying to hold on

Wake up you faithless
Won't be here for long
And this shipwreck will soon be gone

Wake up, you faithless
