lyrics

Snowed in beneath the sheets
hung on the cusp of sleep
wading through wet concrete I go...
Nothing is as it seems
caught on serrated dreams
Big crescent moon so thin and sharp...

But I've seen the light
through darkest night
it's all in my head
but I'll sleep when I'm dead...

With shadows closing in
as candles flicker thin
Nocturne shall feast upon my heart...
To sculpt an empty face
with palms that ache for flesh
I haunt perfections' quest alone...

With skin so wired
sour spirit tired
always ahead
'cos I'll sleep when I'm dead...

Coming down...

I haemorrhage light
transcend the night
halt this dread
'cos I'll sleep when I'm dead...

So too the hour is late
dead eyes to compensate
Between the worlds I wait 'til dawn...
And as my mind dilates
too high to hibernate
my senses saturated by night...

I've seen the light
it's out of sight
it's all in my head
but I'll sleep when I'm dead...

No end in sight
can't win the fight
brain's in debt
but I'll sleep when I'm dead...

Coming down...
