[Intro]
Awaken me
Recovery
[Verse 1]
Can’t seem to find any peace of mind
Thoughts echoing in my head
Your memory is deafening when you’re not in my bed
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause every time I think about you’s like a black cloud
I’m blacking out again
You never told me that it’d be like this, it’s too hard to forgive
[Chorus]
Awaken me, recovery
[Verse 2]
I never knew that without you I’d lose the strength I needed
Now that you’re gone, I can’t move on
It’s like you’re haunting me
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause every time I think about you’s like a black cloud
I’m blacking out again
You never told me that it’d be like this, it’s too hard to forgive
[Chorus]
Awaken me, recovery
Ever since you’ve been gone, feels like I’ve been deceived
Emptiness, won’t you leave
Awaken, awaken me
[Bridge]
I used to think that I deserved so much better
Used to think I was so god damn clever
I’m always learning the hard way
I need to learn so that you’ll stay
[Breakdown]
Stay with me
I know I’m a mess, fuck I’m a mess
And I think that I deserve this
If I must confess, be my witness
Be my witness
[Outro Chorus]
Awaken me, recovery
Ever since you’ve been gone, feels like I’ve been deceived
Emptiness, won’t you leave
Awaken, awaken me
