Testo I'm Awake Frank Barile
I feel dead and so does time
Once weâve woken up
From the prison of the womb
We are given to her arms
Strangers to this room
I can breathe
But I know lifeâs not lived with ease
So get off your dirty knees
And wake up
For all we know may be a lie
When the body goes the soul may also die
So are we hanging on
To anything at all?
If thereâs nothing to hold but faith
Thereâs nothing to do but fall
I canât relate
Iâm too fucked up to understand
But I can offer you my hand
So hold on
Cause there is no master plan
Is it possible that God was born of man?
Donât be afraid to live
For everything youâre worth
Everything you are is yours
From the day youâre born to Earth
Iâm awake
And I am all I need to be
And I am nothing if Iâm not free
I canât sleep
When you mean everything to me
And no fiction will ever take that away from me
There is no way to know
Whatâll happen when we die
But Iâll say it now that art is where the human spirit lies
