![]() ![]() You may recognize some of them from the band Sleepers, but after a few line-up changes, the guys decided to start fresh as Awaken I Am. Written by: Adam Douglas, Connor Verner-oakley, Luke John Mckenzie, Nenad JackovicĪwaken I Am is a 5-piece Progressive Rock/Post-Hardcore band from Australia's beautiful Gold Coast and Brisbane. I am using substances to numb the pain and make things seem okay My thoughts and emotions are as confusing as a mazeĭesperately wishing for everything to be okay I've been stuck in this state for a long time I am now dealing with the emotional distress that I caused myself I made the decisions that led me to where I am now, unexpectedlyĪnd now I'm left with all my own heartache I took some turns I never thought I'd take I will do everything in my power to make things better for us ![]() I will continue to endure and express myself through music I didn't reciprocate the love and care you gave me You showered me with all the love and care in the world Recollection of the past is just a reflection of what once was Your absence has never felt so far away and unbridgeable Why I abandoned everything that brings me joy I've shut myself off from the world and question why I did so "All I need is Novocaine", he/she says, indicating that he/she wants something to numb the pain. ![]() In the closing lines, the speaker asks for some pain relief, a way out of the emotional maze. However, the lines "I've closed my eyes I wonder why" and "You gave me every fucking thing I gave you nothing" suggests that the speaker has recognized the fact that he/she hasn't given enough, and that's part of the reason why the relationship ended. The line "I will move the mountains for you, just for you" is symbolic of the effort the speaker is willing to put in to heal the wound of his/her past love. In the chorus of the song, the speaker vows to go to great lengths to make amends. The line "Why I have left it all behind" suggests that the speaker has let go of love and is now living with regret. The world is now a bewildering place, and there's no hope of finding a way out of the confusion that has frequently led to disappointment. The phrase "If everything were a maze, I would throw my heart away" speaks volume about the state of mind of the speaker who seems to have given up on love altogether. The lyrics of Awaken I Am's song 'Distant Distance' delve into themes such as heartbreak, detachment, and missed opportunities. ![]()
