Awake (song)

Awake is a song off of the album Ambiguous Field of Definition by Eth Eonel. Originally written in April 2005 with the title Stay, and intended as an Aloysius song, it was never introduced to the band. The lyrics was completed at a later date (2007), and the song was recorded in 2008, in a slightly altered and more mild, though experimental, version from the intended hard rock approach. It was played back during a lecture with star producer Gary Bromham, who called it "very innovative". The song features a slow middle section, which in a different arrangement was used as the intro to a prog rock radio show that Eth Eonel hosted from 2008 until 2009, called Ram Prog.

Lyrics
It’s easy to slumber, dive back in and return But it stays when you’re leaving, mildly aching, hopeless yearn Make a wish to come down, return and awake Stay - why don’t you come Stay - why don’t you come and Stay - why don’t you come back to rationality Stay - why don’t you come Stay - why didn’t you stay Awake - why do you stray away from sanity Heart, open to see through, to wander in and out Ears bleeding to listen All the words you need to shout It’s easy to come out, open your eyes and awake Stay - why don’t you come Stay - why don’t you come and Stay - why don’t you come back to rationality Stay - why don’t you come Stay - why didn’t you stay Awake - why do you stray away from sanity Feet moving on the stage, the slow waves crashing in Eyes shut, still you’re seeing, light reveals the deadly sin Heart closing, it turns out Unable to awake Stay - why don’t you come Stay - why don’t you come and Stay - why don’t you come back to rationality Stay - why don’t you come Stay - why didn’t you stay Awake - why do you stray away from sanity
