Cast aside the impulse of my fear Leave behind the world you once held dear I feel cursed by heaven Cut loose my frustrations Lead to darkest waters Treading in the void of death
I'm ready to deny (the body of your waking life) I'm ready to defy Fall asleep, I'll meet you there (burning the fray!) Sacrifice your waking life Count the sheep until you fade (burning the fray!) Then your feet will touch the shore
He gasps, raspy breathing No more life support and He's swimming on his own Circling the void he will roam I watch my brother die (The mind of your waking life) I ask the heavens, "why? "
Fall asleep, I'll meet you there (burning the fray!) Swirling mist coils round your feet Fall asleep, I'll meet you there (burning the fray!) Almost like a twisted dream Nemesis starts at our hearts Again with his fights and righteous scorn Mother is done, rebuking him, rage of paternal love divine "Get out", she says, "leave her alone You're heartless and vile, I want you out! " After she's done, jared is gone... flat-lined as if he saw it all
And now, after all He sees his own son dead And flees into hallways As we're left with just a corpse Fall asleep, I'll meet you there (burning the fray!) Slip your feet into the warm Fall asleep, I'll meet you there (burning the fray!) Leave your mortal shell behind
