lyrics

Awaken.
Arise from my slumber
Another day stuck in this prison.

Held in by four captors.
They speak to me in foreign tongues.
Allowed to roam freely in augmented reality,
Why am I ensnared, while they are all free to go?
This is my dimension, a question ill never know.

How long have I strived for,
For life outside these doors
(I've never really believed in it.)
How long have I strived for,
There is nothing that I would want more.
(Better believe in it.)

I sit here on my perch while planning my escape.
Should I attempt it?
Or will this exacerbate my position in here?
I hear them, they are near.
Distance the demons.
Mark my words, I'll disappear.

How long have I strived for,
For life outside these doors
(I've never really believed in it.)
How long have I strived for,
There is nothing that I would want more.
(Better believe in it.)

We will be tested,
But we will succeed.

We will succeed.

We will be tested.
We will succeed.
