lyrics

Day breaks again
Falling further into the insanity controlling him
He never seems to drift off into the dreams he wants to be in.

“There’s got to be something more than this
Than this bitter sleep.
His eyes are open fixated the walls
All his faults, the withdrawals are all the reasons why he can’t sleep.

There’s got to be something more than this,
Than this bitter sleep.
His eyes are open fixated the walls.
All his faults, the withdrawals are all the reasons why he can’t sleep.

“Wake me up!
“Get me out!

No heart, no soul is left in this broken core he calls his body.
He’s losing himself.
Placed on a shelf
Left behind.

His mind’s a fucking shell of it’s former self
It’s casting lies deep inside
They’ll start to eat him alive.

He screams, at the edge of his bed
Wondering, “Will this ever end?”
And in his dream, he saw the war take his name,
And carve it in the stone where he lay,
Beneath the ground,
Pummeled by rain.

There’s got to be something more than this
Than this bitter sleep
His eyes are open fixated the wall,
All his faults, the withdrawals are all the reasons why he can’t sleep.

There’s got to be something more than this,
Than this bitter sleep.
His eyes are open fixated the wall,
All his faults, the withdrawals are all the reasons why he can’t sleep.

“Wake me up!”
“Get me out!”

“It’s not a dream,
Everything is exactly how it seems.
It’s hell living nightmares when you can’t even sleep.
It’s not a dream,
Everything’s exactly how it seems.
It’s hell having nightmares…”
