Dawn's request

If I crack up and lose my head
try to hide beneath the bed
and leave the television on
so I don’t think of what’s gone wrong …

I beg of the dawn

Break through, save me,
rescue me, wake me from the dead
my weary head in your embrace

If I spin out and off the rails
build myself a bed of nails
then take the whole world down with me
to my dimestore tragedy …

Where will you be?

Break through, heal me
sing to me, kneel beside my bed
my weary head in your embrace

Wake up, sunrise
I may be alone but I’m alive
(and) I will find a way to you

Sunrise, save me this time
you never even had to try
you opened up my eyes

Sunrise, treat me so kind
I was lost … I was blind
(and) you opened up my eyes
