The Dawn's Request lyrics - Duncan Sheik

If I crack up

Lose my head

Try to hid beneath my bed

And leave the television on

So I don't think of what's gone wrong

I beg 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

And take the whole world down with me

Into my dime-store 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, you saved me this time

You never even had to try

And you opened up my eyes

Sunrise, you treat me so kind

I was lost, I was blind

And you opened up my eyes
