Description: Man awakes at home to discover that he hadn't pulled the trigger and committed suicide but rather passed out from the pills he took at that his encounter with God was all within a dream. He's grateful to be alive and thankful for the time he had with his wife and decides to spread the joy, love and truth he has finally come to understand.

Man awakes at home to discover that he hadn't pulled the trigger and committed suicide but rather passed out from the pills he took at that his encounter with God was all within a dream. He's grateful to be alive and thankful for the time he had with his wife and decides to spread the joy, love and truth he has finally come to understand.

lyrics

My heart is pounding, my head is spinning
Is this the end or a new beginning?
I can't believe I'm at home on my couch
When I awake with a gun in my mouth
Every day that we had was a gift
But there's still more of my life left to live

Now I'm awake, I can see clearly
And I'm going to tell the world about
the truth that I have found

I'm awake, I can see you're breathing life into me
This World is too big to live without you
I can feel the strength of your hand
restoring this broken man
