SWITCHFOOT
"Awakening"
(Jon Foreman)

Yeah!

Face down with the LA curbside endings
And the ones and zeros
Downtown was the perfect place to hide
The first star that I saw last night was a headlight
Of a man-made sky but
Man-made never made our dreams collide,
Collide

Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain
We're awakening
Here we are now with the desperate youth and the pain
We're awakening
Maybe it's called ambition
You've been talking in your sleep about a dream
We're awakening
Yeah

Last week saw me living for nothing but deadlines
With my deadbeat sky but
This town doesn't look the same tonight
These dreams started singing to me out of nowhere
And in all my life I
Don't know that I ever felt so alive
Alive

Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain
We're awakening
Here we are now with the desperate youth and the pain
We're awakening
Maybe it's called ambition
But you've been talking in your sleep about a dream
We're awakening

I want to wake up kicking and screaming
I want to wake up kicking and screaming
I want to know that my heart's still beating
It's beating
I'm bleeding
I want to wake up kicking and screaming (I want to wake up)
I want to live like I know what I'm leaving (I want to wake up)
I want to know that my heart's still beating (I want to wake up)
It's beating
It's beating
It's beating
I'm bleeding

Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain
We're awakening
Here we are now with the desperate youth and the pain
We're awakening
Maybe it's called ambition
But you've been talk - talking in your sleep about a dream
We're awakening
Dream
We're awakening
Yeah

(Yeah) [4x]
