Sleep Of Despair Lyrics
My own mind controls my real fateBut if I wake from slumber, then returns despairOf the days depression, forgets the dreams I shareIf I sleep in peace do I loose my sinOr does it linger to when the day beginI've been trying for so long now to avoid the crimes of mindThe things I want, desire can it damn me from all peaceI lie awake and pray for sleep to take the sorrow away for nowIn the dreams I'll find new hope, will hope ever cure my illsI hear a woman's voice is callingA voice I've never heardI have no vision of her imageMy dread is growing, I don't knowIf I ever care to wake upI know my fear will extend stillThe inner workings of my mindCan never sleep or calm my mindThe troubled waters of my worldAren't consumed by restful sleepNow upon the mornings risingI find life's gauntlet carries onIn a building with no doorwaysEscape can never beDespair my only loveI find my way through the dreams of doomDespair reaches out in the black of nightEmbracing my life's dreamI still resist/break the curse/my faithWill live/where hope denies my peaceAnd through revealed/ in fragments of my mindMy will exists/to roam the corridors of lifeI am the force, I've searched and sought so longMy name is his through ancient dreams may now obscure
Steel Prophet Sleep Of Despair
