Lyrics Tarja Turunen

Tarja Turunen

Falling Awake

Phantom voices with no words to follow

At the mercy of the cold and hollow

I withdrew into my sanctuary of silence

My defence

In this moment I am just becoming

Liberated from my cell of nothing

No sensation there was only breathing

Overcome oblivion

Falling awake

From a walking sleep

And all that remains

Is the dying memory

And now I can dive for

These dreams I make

Like I'm falling

I'm falling awake

Waves of melodies once forgotten

Like a symphony across the ocean

Never knew that they could hear my calling

Deep within

Crashing

Rushing in

Like falling

Falling awake

From a walking sleep

And all that remains

Is the dying memory

And now I can dive for

these dreams I make

Like I'm falling

I'm falling awake

There is no returning to that emptiness, loneliness

The dream that lives inside of me

Won't fade away, it's wide awake

Falling awake

From a walking sleep

And all that remains

Is the dying memory

And now I can dive for

these dreams I make

Like I'm falling

I'm falling

Falling awake

From a walking sleep

And all that remains

Is the dying memory

And now I can dive for

these dreams I make

Like I'm falling

I'm falling awake
