Sometimes at night my eyes pop open
It's as if someone has spoken
Trying to frighten me, change what my mind sees
And all the bad runs through my brain
I sit and anticipate the pain that must come for us all
Into darkness we must fall
Time will take my breath away, and time will steal my eyes from me
But I'll live on in a song about the time when I could breathe
The time when I could see
See the world around me
Contemplate the beauty
The time is now, you see
Inevitable tragedy will befall both you and me
So wake up, I've had enough of stalling; we've got the whole world to see
And if we focus on the little things, we'll make this trip worth taking
And soon the darkness collapses to make room for light to exist
Let it take you over, feel the cleansing water
Get out of your own way, and walk the light of day
As it takes you under, dive the deep blue water
It holds the pain at bay
We won't be led astray.
