lyrics

Distracted by a small girl who always seems to win,
with dissatisfaction for your beauty.
Wanting magazine lips and using fake expression,
with bright lights and shouting sounds.
But with tiny eyes she’s blind,
with a desire of the self she could find.
Already willing, always ready.
So awake, awake, clothe yourself with strength,
rise up, shake off that dust.
You can’t live with your eyes closed,
blind to what you have lost.
I know it’s sometimes hard to hear,
you put it to the back of your mind for years.
It’s not okay to just be okay,
unprepared yet still waiting
for something more than what’s gone before.
To hunger for the invisible.
Awake, clothe yourself with strength,
Shake off that dust. You can't live with your eyes closed.
She walks in great detail as if a manga girl.
She’s got to take off the focus and capture it now. Awake, awake, clothe yourself with strength,
rise up, shake off that dust.
You can’t live with your eyes closed,
blind to what you have lost.
Clothe yourself with strength.
