Story Behind the Song
This is a song that was toyed around with for sometime and can be called the "Stairway" of Hacha. The main picking pattern was something that Harold had been fooling around with for about two years and is very derivative from the Beatles song "Dear Prudence". The song was written after a show in CT one night and became one of the band's best pieces of work. The recording of the song has some interesting aspects worth noting. The voice is being brought through a Leslie speaker giving it a very whirling effect which adds to the title of the song, another pun, "The Long Wake Up". Also, the acoustic guitar seems to melt into what becomes an electric guitar and eventually turns distorted. The lyrics, using the analogy of a river to a stream, talk about the struggles of Hacha themselves, and their hope to find success in the one thing they love unconditionally, music.
Lyrics
Long Wake Up
(Hacha)
Been down the ground with the lost time as my lead
and I need to take a swim down the stream of disbelief
they flow free
right past me
even though it’s not a river it’s a stream.
And now this river banks washed up onto me
I grow free from waters fallen to the air thats escaped me
it flows free
right past me
even though it’s not a river it’s a stream.
Now I see the waves and I don’t grow watching flies and children from this wall
Keepin’ time the only way I know going down the only road I know
Break away from me, I don’t need, I don’t need Break, I don’t need anymore na na na na,
(Repeat)
Break away from me.
