Lyrics In a Manner of Sleep - Funeral For A Friend

In a Manner of Sleep

Why do we sleep oh little one
Forget the ringing bell
It won’t be dark for long
No sleep embrace the truth
Hallway after hallway
There’s nowhere left to run
There’s nowhere left to hide
Time will steal another piece from our hell
And time will tell
Light of where we lie
And where we fall
The lights shine out
Over distant waiting walls
Tones strike out
And fall back down
They ring out
A distant clear sound
Why do we sleep oh little one
Forget the ringing bell
It won’t be dark for long
No sleep embrace the truth
Nail us to the floor
And eyes to be worn
Their evil lie
Burn the wicker man
As the bind the threads
Thread by thread
Light of where we lie
And where we fall
The lights shine out
Over distant waiting walls
Tones strike out
And fall back down
They ring out
A distant clear sound
Embrace the truth
We need a spark not another dead match
We need a spark not another dead match
We need a spark not another dead match
Find the will to keep it burning
Light of where we lie
And where we fall
The lights shine out
Over distant waiting walls
Tones strike out
And fall back down
They ring out
A distant clear sound
A distant clear sound
A distant clear sound
A distant clear sound
A distant clear sound
