Lyric

Awakening

JourneyGirl

Walking through the city painted gray

Everyone's wearing the same old face

Following the tracks that they have laid

Living like a ghost in this cold place

Suffocating in this classroom cage

Forced to find the answers they approve

Swallowing my voice and all my rage

Playing out a lie I never chose

But something deep inside is screaming out

"This is not the real you" it's crying loud

Like a bird that's chained up to the ground

Looking to the sky, I'm breaking down

Break it down! This world of lies

Burn it all! These fake disguise

To find the truth that's buried deep

I'm standing up, no more to weep

Scream it out! From in my soul

Run it down! I'm in control

The suppressed heart inside of me

Is waking up, I'm finally free

Uniform conformity they preach

Individuality's a sin

Different is a word they'll never teach

Killing who I am from deep within

But behind the mirror of my eyes

There's a flame that's never gonna die

Underneath this mask of painted smiles

The real me is waiting to arise

I won't take it anymore, I'm done

Breaking from this cage, I'm gonna run

Got my wings ready to take flight

Now's the moment to ignite

Break it down! This world of lies

Burn it all! These fake disguise

To find the truth that's buried deep

I'm standing up, no more to weep

Scream it out! From in my soul

Run it down! I'm in control

The suppressed heart inside of me

Is waking up, I'm finally free

Who decided this path for me?

Who created this prison cell?

We're not puppets, can't you see?

We have our own stories to tell

Don't be afraid of being different

Don't be ashamed of who you are

Paint the world with your own brilliance

Now the real fight's about to start

Break it down! All of these chains

Burn it all! The old remains

To build a world that's truly new

Let's stand together, me and you

Scream it out! The song of souls

Run it down! Towards our goals

With the power of our awakened hearts

We'll change the world, we'll make new starts

With liberated minds and spirits

Being true to who we are

Now a brand new story's written

We will shine just like a star

Color bleeding through the gray

Light is breaking through the dark

Now our voices find their way

"This is who we really are"
