    Story Behind the Song
    I wanted to write a song about the grim determination we feel to save someone we love who is hellbent on destroying themselves.

    But, for all our determination, it's a hopeless endeavor because, ultimately, that person has to want to be rescued or redeemed.

    I liked the idea of musically showing that contrast of unfaltering love against despair.

    Lyrics
    FALL AWAKE - (joey b)

    "It feels so cold"
    I hear you say
    I see your eyes are turning grey
    and your tears they blind the way
    so I can't find you...

    I feel you stand
    I feel you sway
    I feel you push your strength away
    surrendering to hopelessness' embrace
    but I can't let you..

    if you..

    fall awake
    I'll try to save you
    nothing can take you down to
    run away
    I'll try to race you
    I'll try to chase you down
    fall awake
    I'll try to shake you
    nothing can bring you around to
    fall awake
    nothing can phase you
    nothing can break you down


    and your dreams
    they feel displaced
    and your kiss leaves a bitter taste
    and my hands they touch your face...
    but I can't feel you

    if I could wake up standing in your place
    if I could kiss the teardrops from your face
    and if I could dress your wounds in lace...
    you know I'd try to

    if you find you're reaching for a line
    wishing for an ending to this crime
    and if your heart can't beat in time
    reach... reach...
    and take mine.
