The Awakening

The Awakening is a gothic rock band from Johannesburg, South Africa, formed in 1995 by vocalist, guitarist and producer Ashton Nyte. The band is credited in the press as "South Africa's most successful Gothic Rock act and one of the top bands in the far broader Alternative scene." The band has released eight full-length studio albums, one greatest hits album, two music videos, and two EPs, and have received significant radio play and club rotation throughout South Africa, Europe, and the USA. They became the first gothic rock band to ever headline major national festivals throughout South Africa, including Oppikoppi and RAMfest, and have performed to crowds of some 30,000 in their home country. As of 2008 the band has been based in the United States. more »

If I could only for a moment
If I could look before I leap
To test it out before diving
To test to see how deep

When I'm alone dressed up in crayon
Pulling burdens from the weak
For just to look in her direction
To bear the cause or bear deceit

Oh but the night time is where it breeds
I feed on the night time feelings bereaved
Oh but the night time is what I need

Thought I'd improve my concentration
A little more breathing space
But I'm suffocated by the ventilation
That circles round this hollow place

Oh but the night time is where it breeds
I feed on the night time feelings bereaved
Oh but the night time is what I need

It doesn't matter where the hurt is
It's only worse when it's dark
I see her face and then the burning
Tomorrows breathe into a spark

If I could learn from past disaster
That left my mind a riddled fuse
When eyes were turned to the, to the hereafter
And life had seemed so far removed

Oh but the night time is where it breeds
I feed on the night time feelings bereaved
Oh but the night time is what I need
