Symphony X - Awakenings lyrics

rate me

Needless to say, another day has passed away

Yet everything, and nothing, has changed

Awake I lie, my thoughts get lost up in the sky

Needless to say, nothing will change...

Maybe a mystic - with fortunes to tell...

Surrender my coin at the old wishing well...

Maybe the stars will light in the night...

To show me the path that is right

'Would've been's and 'could've been's

they waste my days away

the colors of my life dissolve and fade to gray

So many paths of promise

Indecision poisons my mind

If only I had seen the signs - so blind

Yet I must journey on - on and on

A haunting vision torments me

It smothers and steals my dreams

I see an old man in the mirror

cold and bitter starring back at me

Here I am - at the crossing of life I stand

On my own - looking down the road

Hear my cry - answer me

Still I'm searching yet the truth is unknown - though the night is cold

I walk the road alone
