The Awakening

from One Wiltshire Winter by Archie Atholl

/

lyrics

It’s 5 in the morning, according to my iPhone
I have just woken up on this hill on my own
Man, what have I taken, I’m never touching that again
‘Cause my fingers are numb, they’ve been chilled to the bone.

Flashbacks appearing, surely I’ve just been dreaming
Yet I do remember meeting a horseman clad in gold
What’s so peculiar is, I don’t know how I got here
I’m in Avebury now, I thought I had gone home.

Then my eyes are triggered
By a ring upon my finger
If the Golden King was only in my mind
Then how the Hell did that get there?

I pull out my pocket, an empty pack of Lambert
I am guessing I smoked my last climbing way up here
I check in my jacket, I’ve lost my keys and wallet
Looks like I’m stranded now, in the midst of nowhere.

Then my eyes are triggered
By a ring upon my finger
If the Golden King was only in my mind
Then how the Hell did that get there?

Then my eyes are triggered
By a ring upon my finger
If the Golden King was only in my mind
Then how the Hell did that get there?

My eyes are triggered
By a ring upon my finger
If the Golden King was only in my mind
Then how the Hell did that get there?
