Phantom Friends - Awake! Lyrics

Hold your palms out to the fire
They're licked by bright flames of desire
Whose ashes moved by false words fade and die

All the world's your oyster now
But leave your starried eyes at home
And shake those golden embers from your head

Awake awake
Arise from dreams
It's all wrong
Stay oh stay
Don't leave tonight
This is your home

Gather all your wooden stubble
The cinders burning there inside
Hold the fiery coals to your mouth
It eats your soul
It eats alive

All the world's your oyster now
But soon those hoary hands of time
Will strangle all those golden memories
And leave you broken on the line

Awake oh world
The night was cold and oh so long
Oh the dawn's new light
Is warm and oh so strong

Awake oh heart
And leave the body alone
The years will pass
You'll find your soul
And then you're gone
