Stranger In Your Soul

I. Sleeping Wide Awake



Once, not so long ago

I lived far below

Where you are

I didn't even know

Home was far a way

I was sleeping wide-awake

Breaking down

Waiting for the sound



But I can hear it now

Is it all too late

'Cause I would sell my dreams

If I could be awake

If I could be awake



There - waling into walls

Piercing through the pain

Here we are

Reaching through the rain

I almost caught a glimpse

To feel that Sunday high

I would fall

This makes no sense at all



But I can hear it now

Not a single word

And though I'd strain my voice

I cannot be heard

Outside the smile

The insider breaks

And I would give my dreams

If I could be awake



Whatever you're looking for

Don't ever start looking behind

Whatever you want to change

You better start changing your mind

'Cause everything can be done

Stand up 'cause this is your time



II. Hanging in the Balance



Go where you're going to

You can rule your mind

You will not decay

Decay is always waiting

You've got nowhere to go

So you look behind

What you sought to find

Is always fading



Wish to be wishless

Less can live evermore

More doesn't satisfy

The deeper meaning

Lose if you want to find

Find what you're looking for

For all your dreams can live

Live as if to satisfy the meaning



Whatever you're looking for

Don't ever start looking behind

Whatever you want to change

You better start changing your mind

'Cause everything can be done

Stand up 'cause this is your time



Drink in the big dream

Dream but you have to wait

Wait 'til you get it right

Write down every letter

Paint with the broadest strokes

Stroke through the deepest sea

See what you have in mind

To make it better



Get in on the ground floor

Floor to ceil
