Switchfoot - Awakening

 ★ 



Face down with the LA curbside ending

In ones and zeros.

Downtown was the perfect place to hide.

The first star that I saw last night

was a headlight

of a man-made sky, but

Man-made never made our dreams collide.



(chorus)

Here we are now

with the falling sky and the rain,

We're awakening

Here we are now

with the desperate youth and the pain,

We're awakening

Maybe it's called ambition,

you've been talking in your sleep

About a dream, We're awakening



Last week found me living for nothing but deadlines,

With my dead beat sky but,

this town doesn't look the same tonight

These dreams started singing to me out of nowhere

And in all my life

I don't know if I've ever felt so alive, alive



(chorus)

Here we are now

with the falling sky and the rain,

We're awakening

Here we are now

with the desperate youth and the pain,

We're awakening

Maybe it's called ambition,

you've been talking in your sleep

About a dream, We're awakening



I want to wake up kicking and screaming

I want to wake up kicking and screaming

I want a heart that I know is beating,

It's beating, I'm bleeding.

I want to wake up kicking and screaming

I want to live like I know what I'm leaving

I want a heart that I know is beating,

It's beating... I'm bleeding



(chorus)

Here we are now

with the falling sky and the rain,

We're awakening

Here we are now

with the desperate youth and the pain,

We're awakening

Maybe it's called ambition,

you've been talking in your sleep

About a dream, We're awakening
