When I woke, I was not awake

Light from the sun felt so far away

I went up, with all of my strength

Straight for the sun, from the depths I sprang

And I drank from the sea

But it opened up and swallowed me

So I sank down deep

No I'm drunken like a seasick dream

In this dream, I am awake

I am awake.

Well when did all of the waves

Roll right in and make me their slave

So I went far away

I didn't look back, I'll come back someday

Mamma wept, and she weeped

She said horizon don't you take him from me

Black sails on the sea

Just carry me until I can be

Awake, in this dream.

I am awake.
