Wake Me Up Inside

by Matthew Robitaille
(Belleville IL USA)

How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
without a soul
my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to roll out
before I come undone
save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love darling
Only you are the Life among the dead

All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought without a voice without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
