[Verse 1] My yolk was blackened, charred I turned their stomachs hard. I held yet they scorned my guard my cries beneath one whilst others barred I kissed a breath that tasted death. I saw her there, calling me back. [Verse 2] Then horror found its proper name. I promised... yet I could not sing. No wound I dealt myself had ever brought me quite that near. Still I swore I saw her there, but time and again she turned me back, refusing me a final end. [Pre-Chorus] So I surrendered, danced instead with life, never reaching for colours I knew beyond my soul's reach [Chorus] Now souls, strangely familiar, echo that once-cosmic dream. Their likeness hints the future may already know that reality itself has always been a dream. [Bridge] When the darkness called my name I thought that was where I'd belong But something deeper pulled me under Just to bring me back as someone strong [Final Chorus] If this life is only dreaming Then let me dream with open eyes Every ending left behind me Made another sunrise [Outro – Spoken] I thought I was searching for an ending. But every time I reached the edge... something turned me back. Maybe I was never meant to disappear. Maybe I was only meant... to wake up. And if this world is a dream... I'll spend the rest of it learning how to live.
