All the letters I wrote you
Went into the fire
To give me a sense of grounding
For what was to transpire
All the letters you wrote me
False sense of security
Don't look in the mirrors, darling
The rituals have failed
Always at night, always at night
Always at night, always at night
Think back to the fail safes
They like to count in twos
Consume all my idols, and bury my friends
For another night with you
I read all the books they showed me
And I know that ship has sailed
I know that I fucked up beyond repair
The rituals have failed
Always at night, don't go to sleep
Stay clear of the dark, no reflections
It'd pay to stay away from me
You'd better stay away from me
Always at night, don't go to sleep
Stay clear of the dark, no reflections
It'd pay to stay away from me
But you'll never stay away from me

It's only a way out, never a way in
It's only a ghost when you're sleeping
You were my only, but I was so wrong
They're ready to go, I'm waiting
Of all the illusions they could take me for
I think you're the worst
There's nothing left
There's nothing left
There's nothing left
There's nothing
I was barely sleeping when they came for me
On the brink of dreaming, when they came for me
You were a child of so many delusions
Of which my fevered mind could draw
I was the lion and you were the lamb
I tore you apart at the seams, my love
And now they know your name and your face
And they have my blood
There's nothing left
There's nothing left
There's nothing left
There's nothing
I was barely sleeping when they came for me
On the brink of dreaming, when they came for me
Oh it's the worst of my mistakes
Leading to the nothingness inside
Oh and now it's starting to break
Claw my heart out of my sleeve and cast it all aside
There's nothing left
There's nothing left
There's nothing left
There's nothing
I was barely sleeping when they came for me
On the brink of dreaming, when they came for me
There's nothing left
There's nothing left
There's nothing left
There's nothing
I was barely sleeping when they came for me
(You only think about yourself my dear I'm speaking out)
On the brink of dreaming when they came for me
(Because it's all that I have left I swear I'm honest, dear)
I was barely sleeping when they came for me
(Please please please don't leave me alone here in the dark)
On the brink of dreaming when they came for me
(In the dark, in the dark)

Some people tell me that I should fear death
But god, I fear life, portraying the actor
Here in the dark, I take my last breath
Won't you come here for once?
Been passed around, been taken and used
Been handed over, and I still love you
I'll miss the songs, the beauty and rapture
I don't fear death, I fear what comes after
I want to die
But it doesn't matter
I want to die but
Fear what comes after, my love
My love, my love...
I'll miss the sun, the trees and the river
I'll miss the fall, the summer and winter
I'll miss my mother, my sister and brother
I'll even miss my father
Selflessly made, but I wanted more
I wanted to stay, I'm only your whore
I'll miss the fire, the burning of capture
I don't fear death, I fear what comes after
I want to die
But it doesn't matter
I want to die but
Fear what comes after, my love
My love, my love...
I'll miss the stars that burned in your eyes
The die has been cast, we say our goodbyes
I'll miss the dreams that we'd be together
I don't fear love, I just fear forever
I want to die
But it doesn't matter
I want to die but
Fear what comes after, my love
My love, my love, my love, my love
My love, my love, my love, my love

We Were Sleeping

I slept to sounds of the perishing sighs
When hope loses breath and then finally dies
It feels like a secret that I have to tell
That I tried to put you right under my spell
So say that you love me, but it's not enough
Say that you love me, I yearn for your touch
My heart is breaking, and I come undone
Say that you love me, but it's not enough
I was yours right
You were not mine, no
I saw the signs torn in my heart
Everyone will say that we were in love
But we were sleeping
We were sleeping
The truth, it escapes me, I'm stuck in the dark
This feeling confounds me, and tears us apart
It feels like it came down from somewhere above
When everyone wants you, but nobody does
So say that you want me, but it's not enough
Say that you want me, I yearn for your touch
My heart is aching, and I come undone
Say that you want me, but it's not enough
I was yours right
You were not mine, no
I saw the signs torn in my heart
Everyone will say that we were in love
But we were sleeping
We were sleeping
While you slept, you were as light as a feather and stiff as a board
Felt strangled with fear, and you prayed to your lord
It wasn't enough
Say that you love me, but it's not enough
Say that you love me, I yearn for your touch
My heart is breaking, and I come undone
Say that you love me, but it's not enough
I was yours right
You were not mine, no
I saw the signs torn in my heart
Everyone will say that we were in love
But we were sleeping
We were sleeping
