about

The first single from our debut album, A Different Ocean, due out September 2015.

lyrics

Awake, only rarely
Alive, but barely
Sleeping is all I do
Protect my inside
From the evil that's outside
Trying so hard to get to me

I feel like I'm blind but I see too much
Things that are living are cold to the touch
I'm losing my will from the thorn that's in my side
I wanna go to sleep and dream a dream
Of a place that is perfect where I can believe
That someday, something great is gonna happen for me

But if I lose all of my pride
There'll be nothing at all
Left to hide, left to hide

Awake, only rarely
Alive, but barely
Sleeping is all I do
Protect my inside
From the evil that's outside
Trying, trying to get to me

If the clouds part in the sky
Leaving nowhere for me to hide
Then I'll burrow beneath the ground
Where I never will again be found
