First released on Star-Studded-Super-Step, 'To Be Awake' was already a bit of a token song for us by the time that we re-recorded it for Mindsize. A tad bit folky, with a bit of a rock vibe, 'To Be Awake' was quite different than our other tracks and has always gone well with our acoustic sets or our plugged-in sets. Lyrically, this song is a bit difficult to nail down. It is definitely focused around the notion of being "aware" or "awake" to the things that we do and say. In a world that works in great opposition to the believer, there is little room for being naive.... and so we need to think, pray and act. Well I'm a happy man So will I ever speak my mind But I know that we just haven't got the time To be awake, to be ashamed, will you? This world wants to drown me with the things it's thinking of So now I don't want to see or breathe in this place that cannot love I would rather lose my life than to ever, ever lose my mind But in this world, in this land It's our thoughts that we cannot find To be awake, to be ashamed, will you? So you see me run away And you wonder why I am scared Well, I just can't help but think about the things of which we're not aware Bu döküman AkorMerkezi.com'da yayınlanmıştır. http://www.akormerkezi.com
