Awoken by Koa Lyrics
[Verse 1 - Koa]
What cause have I to feel glad?
I've built my life on judgment and causing pain
I don't know those eyes I see in the bloodstained chrome
Now everything that I've had and everything I've known have been thrown away
And with time I've come to find this isn't my home
[Chorus - Koa]
I've stoked the fire, seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire to change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
[Verse 2 - Koa and General Mumble]
I man these wretched machines
Day in, day out, the grinding wears on my brain
Undermining my sanity, making me question my reality
But life is not as it seems
Should I take a chance at freedom and throw it all down the drain?
I've been imprisoned, please burn my transgressions away
[Chorus - Koa and General Mumble]
I've stoked the fire, seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire to change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please break my shackles, I want it to stop
[Chorus - Koa]
I've stoked the fire, seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire to change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
[Chorus - Koa and General Mumble]
I'm sick of hurting, sick of thinking it's all I do
I break those around me, those spared are very few
But the bright sun is burning, and my sky shines ever blue
Friendships surround me, I'm becoming a part of you
I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please break my shackles, I want it to stop
What cause have I to feel glad?
I've built my life on judgment and causing pain
I don't know those eyes I see in the bloodstained chrome
Now everything that I've had and everything I've known have been thrown away
And with time I've come to find this isn't my home
[Chorus - Koa]
I've stoked the fire, seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire to change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
[Verse 2 - Koa and General Mumble]
I man these wretched machines
Day in, day out, the grinding wears on my brain
Undermining my sanity, making me question my reality
But life is not as it seems
Should I take a chance at freedom and throw it all down the drain?
I've been imprisoned, please burn my transgressions away
[Chorus - Koa and General Mumble]
I've stoked the fire, seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire to change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please break my shackles, I want it to stop
[Chorus - Koa]
I've stoked the fire, seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire to change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
[Chorus - Koa and General Mumble]
I'm sick of hurting, sick of thinking it's all I do
I break those around me, those spared are very few
But the bright sun is burning, and my sky shines ever blue
Friendships surround me, I'm becoming a part of you
I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please break my shackles, I want it to stop
