Standing

The Awakening

Sitting by myself again

Battered and alone

Wondering to myself again

Whether I have grown



Stand and be counted

Stand to be seen

Stand and be counted



I look into your eyes again

And memories unfold

I wonder about the time we spend

The place we call a home



Stand and be counted

Stand to be seen

Stand and be counted



You force my mind to run away

to your dreams of black and gold

A pain so sharp it bleeds the night

I give you my hand to hold



Stand and be counted

Stand to be seen

Stand and be counted



It's not long to go

To find your way Home
