This is my wake
These are my mistakes
A preface to the magnitude of everlasting fate
Please don't think that i have lost my lust for life
This story's mine to tell, and I will write it down (tonight)
This endless stream of consciousness
It all began when I was young, from that moment on
I was determined not to fall asleep again
I'll open my eyes with every new day
And I wont stop until I find my way
Out on the open seas, this vessel makes waves
The ocean swells more beautifully (today)
Under this mighty ship i built
I'm refusing to turn back, the plan of attack
Is let my pride take me as far as I can go
We'll weather the storm
And when my ship crash lands
It will take all I have to incinerate, in fear i may fade
I will burn out brighter than the sun
And at my wake, I need you to know
Each step I take, I calculate
But I follow no map today
With no courage to demonstrate
Beginning to end
From Wake to Wake
I know these eyes will never break
And when the end is all I have
I will hold it to my chest
No sign of regret
I'll whisper one last time the phrase that got me to this place
This Is My Wake
