[Verse 1:]
Days we were young
We took photographs of everything we could see
We knew we were
Impervious no matter how we'd bleed
We never fought for breath
Priest and prophetess
We were nothing we would defy
[Refrain 1:]
Invincible skin
It's how we all begin
[Chorus:]
Awake, awake
This is a dream state
Though we were wide awake
This is a dream state
Though we were wide awake
This is a dream state
[Verse 2:]
Will we survive in this, our new wilderness?
We have nothing on our feet
We had to run from it
Priest and prophetess
We were nothing we would deny
[Refrain 2:]
Invisible skin
Where is the world within?
Invincible skin
It's how we all begin
[Chorus 2:]
Awake, awake
This is a dream state
This is a dream state
Though we are wide awake
[Post-Chorus:]
Out of the dark day, into the brighter night [5x]
[Interlude 2x:]
How do we feel?
How do we feel in that photograph
And how do we feel it again?
[Outro:]
Days we were young
We took photographs of everything we could be
