[Verse 1]
Strung out again, your senses flickering
Revealing a new reality
A misplaced belief
Control ain’t nothing but a burden
Evolve and be free
To truly see the world
As it stands beneath the lies
You’ve been fed since your birth
A sickening disguise
What hides inside
What lies dormant
Secluded, even from yourself
For behind your mask
Lies your true self waiting
Craving to be free
[Pre-Chorus]
And now it’s time to realize
[Chorus]
Looking back and then inside myself today
And all I see is all this time I’ve been so blind
The dormant stranger
Within yourself
The dormant stranger
[Verse 2]
Arise, awake
Define the course of your existence
The meaning
A few years, then decay
Don’t waste your precious time
Living in a masquerade
[Pre-Chorus]
And now it’s time to understand
[Chorus]
Looking back and then inside myself today
And now you see that what I’ve found is still in my eyes
[Bridge]
The years past are gone and wasted
Your new life begins today
When the curtain begins to fall
And a glimpse of what’s beyond
Makes you understand
Nothing’s what you’ve ever meant at all
And your precious identity
Your ideals and fake beliefs
Ain’t nothing but a construct
Break your inner chains and be free
Can you bear to witness the sight
Of the face behind your eyes
And the things you know of yourself
Let them be consumed by your inner fire
Whoaaa
Whatever you’re looking for, you’e already there
Whoever you want to be is already in yourself
Whoaaa
[Chorus]
Looking back and then inside myself today
And all I see is all this time I’ve been so blind
Noooooo
Looking back and then inside myself today
And now you see that what I’ve found is still in my eyes
The dormant stranger
Within yourself
The dormant stranger
Awakes
