Analysis of Still awake inside a dream!
Woe to me the sparrow speakes!
Along with vultures and jackals who creep!
Still awake yet my life a dream!
Where fair ness calls and sleep I need!
The voices I hear stop my needs!
Where tyranny reigns and death is to free!
Inside my room I fight the doom!
The exit plan another's tune!
I say today I'll love not hate!
Yet, the voices they create the reality I take!
Who am I to stop your raid?
The same one who did not choose to participate!
Woe to me awake I sleep!
Inside a world that hates to be!
Woe to me the sparrow speaks!
Alive I am, yet, not truly free!
