[Refrain 1]When you wake upFor when you wake up[Verse 1]There once was a landLittle known to your kindThere once was a landOnly we knew how to findWhere we were fireSimmer down, simmer down[Verse 2]When my hands are soreFrom carrying this weight aroundWhen my eyes are numbAnd the air is failing on our lungsAnd we're left with a bitter tasteOn our tongues[Chorus]Your shallow truthFractures and distorts our self viewsAnd my tether beatEchoes in the minds of a few[Refrain 2]For when you wake upFor when you wake up[Verse 3]All light absorbedIn the shadows I will hide'Til the contour of my silhouetteFades to undefinedI still have fireSimmer down, simmer down[Chorus]Your shallow truthFractures and distorts our self viewsAnd my tether beatEchoes in the minds of a few[Chorus]Your shallow truthFractures and distorts our self viewsAnd my tether beatEchoes in the minds of a few[Refrain 3]For when you wake upIf you ever wake up
