NEEDTOBREATHE - Slumber

Artist: NEEDTOBREATHE Track: Slumber Album: The Reckoning Year: 2011
NEEDTOBREATHE is a Christian rock band that has gained much acclaim yet has somehow managed to slip past my attention. Thankfully "Slumber" was introduced to my ears not that long ago. 
It's an uplifting, rock track with a twinge of folksy bluegrass. "Slumber" creates its own atmosphere that just makes me feel like I'm waking up to a bright day full of possibilities. Maybe this is because of the lyrics, but I believe the band does a masterful job of combining vocals, guitars, gentle chimes and drums to slowly build the song up to an energetic finale. I seriously should put this as my alarm.

LYRICS:
Days they force you back under those covers Lazy mornings they multiply Glory's waiting outside your window Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes
Tongues are violent, personal and focused Tough to beat with your steady mind But hearts are stronger after broken Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes
All these victims stand in line for The crumbs that fall from the table Just enough to get by All the while your invitation Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes
Take from vandals all you want now Please, don't trade it in for life Replace the feeble with the fable Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes
All these victims stand in line for The crumbs that fall from the table Just enough to get by All the while your invitation Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes
Come on, sing like we used to Dance when you want to Taste of the breakthrough And open wide
All these victims stand in line for The crumbs that fall from the table Just enough to get by All the while your invitation Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes Wake on up from your slumber Baby, open up your eyes
Come on, sing like we used to And dance like you want to Come on now and open your eyes
Come on, sing it like we used to And we'll dance like we want to Come on and open up your eyes
