Then I woke up...
My toes over the edge
Bound with secrets left to keep
My body is awake
my soul is still asleep
dug my nails in the dirt
as you drug me away
your hand over my mouth
God couldn't hear me say
"Please wake me up,
End this sequel now,
I'm in hell where he wanted me,
He can stand to take his bow
Dreams end too early
Nightmares end too late
My body got there
Though my soul had to wait
To get where I got
I lost all my faith
My body got there missing...
What my soul was supposed to take
I waited in the dark
Just below the surface
I rid all my hope
It just didn't serve a purpose
The touch of his hands
Sent my flesh into shame
I can't help but to think
It was all just a game
Just then a gentle touch
lifted my chin
Disturbing the slumber
Of my spirit within
An angel place it's hand tightly in mine
As we lifted
I hung, like a grape on a vine
"Your last tear, was your last."
A voice whispered to me
Arriving at my destination
Sent the ground to my knees
"This isn't the way I wanted to go!"
Then he said
"I had to save you before you lost all hope!"
Such beauty as this,
I have never seen
As it pumped through my veins
I was humbled and serene
It was the heaven in which I spoke of
It was the end of my struggle...
and then I woke up.
Bound with secrets left to keep
My body is awake
my soul is still asleep
dug my nails in the dirt
as you drug me away
your hand over my mouth
God couldn't hear me say
"Please wake me up,
End this sequel now,
I'm in hell where he wanted me,
He can stand to take his bow
Dreams end too early
Nightmares end too late
My body got there
Though my soul had to wait
To get where I got
I lost all my faith
My body got there missing...
What my soul was supposed to take
I waited in the dark
Just below the surface
I rid all my hope
It just didn't serve a purpose
The touch of his hands
Sent my flesh into shame
I can't help but to think
It was all just a game
Just then a gentle touch
lifted my chin
Disturbing the slumber
Of my spirit within
An angel place it's hand tightly in mine
As we lifted
I hung, like a grape on a vine
"Your last tear, was your last."
A voice whispered to me

It was the heaven in which I spoke of
It was the end of my struggle...
and then I woke up.
