Stephen Kellner - Awake Before Dawn lyrics

[Verse 1: Roderick] She awakes just before dawn with barely a thing on And rises to the sunlight - a silhouette, a silver swan With all of her grace and that smile on her face Convinced she owns the daylight and makes the world a brighter place "The time reads:" one two: three four Asleep on the floor again [Verse 2: Roderick] In time I've come to realize this world keeps me alive - Not a lover close beside me and the sweetness between her thighs Because love comes and goes but not everybody knows A fire burns in all our hearts when given a chance to glow [Pre-Chorus: Roderick] "The time reads:" one two: three four Still stuck on the floor [Chorus: Roderick] Alive - I told myself to feel alive today To drink and dance the freakin' night away, Like everything is cool [Verse 3: Roderick] I shed my skin and smoked away my sins - a new life to begin It took courage and time and a lot of late night choices on a whim There is more to the sky than that night it changed my life And that triplet tie of sparkles has just had its place in time [Pre-Chorus: Roderick] "The time reads:" one two: three four I'll pick myself off the floor [Chorus: Roderick] Alive - I told myself to feel alive today To drink and dance the freakin' night away Like everything is cool and I'm okay [Bridge: Roderick] Awake before dawn, alone and content I won't let it get the best of me Awake before dawn, alone and content It's never going to get the best of me [Chorus: Roderick] Alive - I told myself to feel alive today To drink and dance the freakin' night away Like everything is cool and I'm okay [Outro: Roderick] Alive - I told myself to feel alive today To drink and dance the freakin' night away Like everything is cool and I'm okay
