Lyrics:
"Awake In Slumber"
(Words and Music by Mark Palalagi)

Dear friends, I've fallen asleep again
My mind has died, my life is thin
So weary, so tired but the day begins
Dear grace, I'm looking for you again
Your echoes drive my heart to live
So friends I smile but I can't pretend

| If you look in my eyes
| Then you'll know that this hunger lives on
| But these tears that I cry
| Is a sign that my moment has come
| Look in my eyes (Look in my eyes)
| And tell me to breathe it in
| Carry my heart (Carry my heart)
| So I don't drown in sleep again

Dear friends the day has a crush again
My voice breathes fire, my heartbeat dims
Some people walk by so I lift my chin
(Some people walk by so I lift my chin)
Dear grace, I'm longing for you again
Renew my mind so I can live
I could act warm but I can't pretend
(I could act warm but I can't pretend)

| If you look in my eyes
| Then you'll know that this hunger lives on
| But these tears that I cry
| Is a sign that my moment has come
| Look in my eyes (Look in my eyes)
| And tell me to breathe it in
| Carry my heart (Carry my heart)
| So I don't drown in sleep again

I can't see my hands but I must survive
(Dear friends, throw me an answer)
Sunsets clean my wounds, let me rest tonight
(Dear grace, show me an answer)
I can't see my hands but I must survive
(Dear friends, throw me an answer)
Sunsets clean my wounds, let me rest tonight
(Dear grace, show me an answer
Dear grace, sow me an answer)

This time I've fallen beyond the end
No place to hide, no place to stand
So little, so much until I ask again?

| If you look in my eyes
| Then you'll know that this hunger lives on
| But these tears that I cry
| Is a sign that my moment has come
| Look in my eyes (Look in my eyes)
| And tell me to breathe it in
| Carry my heart (Carry my heart)
| So I don't drown in sleep again

Look in my eyes (Look in my eyes)
Look in my eyes (Look in my eyes)
Look in my eyes (Look in my eyes)
Look in my eyes
