Lyrics
Strange moment to wake up
Awakening at an unusual moment
No sunlight through the window
Lack of sunlight entering the room
These noises ain't common
Uncommon or unsettling noises present
I tend to sleep when the wind blows
Preferential sleep during windy times
It's hard to breathe
Experiencing difficulty in breathing
I'm not here
Feeling disconnected or absent
All the nights I spent
Reflecting on nights spent fearing imaginary monsters
Wishing the monsters weren't here
Desire for relief from fears
Breath in
Instruction to inhale
Breath out
Instruction to exhale
Won't be the last time where you don't feel OK
Acknowledging recurring moments of feeling unwell
Look from how far away you came
Reflecting on personal growth and progress
Today your own life's not at stakes
Assurance that one's life is not in danger today
You will always dissociate
Acceptance of dissociation as a part of life
But you won't make the same mistakes
Commitment to learning from past mistakes
It's hard to believe that you guys felt always right
Doubt about the correctness of past decisions
When you woke up alone at night
Loneliness felt when waking up in the night
No one but yourself there on your side
Realization of self-reliance in challenging times
I'm teaming up with those I used to fight
Forging alliances with former adversaries
Ended up alive every time
Surviving challenges and adversities
I'm allowed to feel
Acknowledging the right to feel emotions
Guess I was made to heal
Understanding oneself as capable of healing
It's OK you can go back to sleep now
Reassurance that it's okay to return to rest
