Shaken From My Sleep By Ashley Herkommer
Darkness veils my mind
Just a hostage to self-doubt
The soul yearns for light
Shaken from my sleep
The slumber that slowly kills,
Crumbles and retreats
New day means new choices
Remove the robe of sorrow
My scars become my blaze
Small steps fuel the way
Determined and excited
Grasping my true self
Sunrise lights my path
Sunset only means success
Finding inner peace
