Analysis of awake
Many days I wake
And wish to be elsewhere
Not stuck in a life
That can only hold disappointment and despair
Before I rise I take a long breath
Knowing the day ahead of me
Is not something that i am looking forward to
All the death and destiny
Then I rise hoping it's a dream
Then I realize that I'm still alive
And I must go on with my day
Doing everything I need to strive
