Sleeping Martyr |
There’s a boy they call the sleepin' man, he’s been asleep for days |
There’s a girl lyin' next to him, following his ways |
Dreaming of a foreign place, where the people always pray |
Nowhere else to run to… now |
So this is where they stay |
That’s all she wanted to hear |
That’s all she wanted to hear |
Sleep another year… |
I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr |
Somethin' don’t seem right… In you |
A broken will to testify, a thorn on either side |
Empty bottles lyin' next to him, keeps him satisfied |
Voices on that dead end street, make you feel so fine |
Wake up son it’s time to go, you’re runnin' out of time… |
And that’s all he wanted to hear |
That’s all he wanted to hear |
Sleep another year… |
I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr |
Somethin' don’t seem right. |
In you |
He dreamed until his heart was still or so the story goes. |
Can’t remember how he got that way cause he’s forgot more than he knows… |
Drift into a foreign place, seems like yesterday. |
Nowhere else to run to… now, alone he starts to pray |
And that’s all she wanted to hear |
That’s all she wanted to hear |
Sleep another year… |
I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr |
Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight |
Cause it’s gonna' be a long night, anytime, everytime… |
Anytime In you… |
