Awake from Mechanical by Pacer

These ears I have are both abused.
Filled with wax, tongues in the groove.
But at least my heart is beating.
In the end what can you do
but find something that’s rings true to you
And live your dreams out in the evening.

But I am awake, awake today.

With brittle bones and tarmac homes,
I can see something in the distance.
But I can’t make it out yet.
With hands so cracked and a broken back,
trying to fight any resistance,
Come bend a knee, let’s not forget.

But I am awake, awake today.

First time in so many years
I feel blood surge through my veins.
I threw down the books I idolised
and tried to make a change.
There are words and turns of phrases
I’m sick of singing to myself.
Running out of routines to distract me
from thoughts past dwelt
But I am awake, awake today.
