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… |
