Lyrics The Comprehensible Sleep - Cool Hand Luke

The Comprehensible Sleep

Our lives up to this point
Have lead to this
A garden in the dark
A deadly kiss
If you want to follow me
We’ll walk into suffering
It’s this act
That will distinguish us
My disciples
Those I’ve chosen
Don’t listen to the sirens
Don’t you know
That I would never
Lead you astray
Tie yourself to the mast
And cover your ears with wax
And keep your gaze on me
For God’s sake stay awake
Sometimes you have
To close your eyes to see
Sometimes to walk you have
To get down on your knees
All I ask is that you pray
All I ask is that you stay awake
But your dreams betray me
My disciples
Those I’ve chosen
Don’t listen to the sirens
Don’t you know
That I would never
Lead you astray?
Tie yourself to the mast
And cover your ears with wax
And keep your gaze on me
For God’s sake stay awake
Wake up
Are you resting?
Are you still asleep?
Wake up, o sleeper
Wake up and say a prayer
Wake up, o sleeper
Are you my betrayer?
Wake up, o sleeper
Wake up, o sleeper
Incomprehensible
Incomprehensible
