The Second I Awake

Screaming Trees

Well your eyes are out of my soul, cold and tired

Open like a door to a winter's night

Silver sky becomes a background that begins to grey

Won't find me falling the second I awake



I thought I was going backwards

Walking down the lane

Found a foggy street

Now I'm not the same

Through a maze of walls and fences

Nothing can be heard

Where a million images are spun to just one



My memories are twisted here as I stand

They hold no meaning for me now without a sound

I can hear the bells are ringing calmly in my ears

Cross the fields that stretch forever

It won't disappear
