lyrics

Awake
How am I awake
Shouldn't be hard to drift off
Four sheets to a gale
Blood rush to the temple
Slackens the sails

A drink
More time for a drink
More-so lest I'm sober
And I can't take that
All that I have now is all that I've have

While I will take my leave
Not like that

A sound
What I'd give for a sound
To drown out the insistent silence so invasive
To save me from drowning in my glass so persuasive

A road
Oh, draw me a road
So long as I'm moving
I feel more at home
So long as I'm lonely
I've the drive to keep going

So long's I've the will
I might just say no

And we'll dance there
'neath the moonlight
'til the day paints us a new sky
