Roderick - Awake Before Dawn

She awakes just before dawn
With barely a thing on
And rises to the sunlight
A silhouette, a silver swan
With all of her grace
And that smile on her face
I'm convinced she owns the daylight
And makes the world a brighter place

The time reads "one, two, three, four"
I find myself asleep on the floor again

In time, I've come to realize this world keeps me alive
Not a lover close beside me and the sweetness between her thighs
Because love comes and goes, but not everybody knows
A fire burns in all our hearts when given a chance to glow

The time reads "one, two, three, four"
I find myself still stuck on the floor

Alive - I told myself to feel alive today
To drink and dance the fucking night away
Like everything is cool

I shed my skin and smoked away my sins
A new life to begin
It took courage and time and a lot of late night choices on a whim
There is more to the sky than that night it changed my life
That triplet tie of sparkles has just had it's place in time

The time reads "one, two, three, four"
I pick myself off the floor

Alive - I told myself to feel alive today
To drink and dance the fucking night away
Like everything is cool and I'm okay

Awake before dawn, alone and content
Won't let it get the best of me
Awake before dawn, alone and content
It's never going to get the best of me

The time reads
The time reads
The time reads
The time reads

Alive - I told myself to feel alive today
To drink and dance the fucking night away
Like everything is cool and I'm okay

Alive
(One, two, three, four)
I told myself to feel alive today
(Still stuck on the floor)
To drink and dance the fucking night away
(One, two, three, four)
Like everything is cool and I'm okay
(Still stuck on the floor)
