Jack Strong - Graveyard Shift lyrics

I cut out her tongue when she said my name My eyes are open but I am not awake They found the knife buried deep inside her The sky seems higher The sun seems brighter Black and blue broken bloodied and bruised Just like a dream from which you never wake up I am in hell Trapped inside myself Ignorance is bliss And there is freedom in carelessness I sleep But I refuse so dream Don't you ever pray for me Coming apart at the seams There is no good inside of me One day a storm will come and wash away the weak Someday d**h will come and wake me from this sleep We are defined by the burdens we keep The burden I see is the burden of sleep I am still in hell Trapped inside myself Regret unconsciousness as we spiral into the abyss She told me she wanted to meet the reaper I had only done her a favor She didn't deserve to die But I deserved to k** her Grinding my teeth to dust Prison bars have begun to rust On the line between living and dead As your eyes roll back into your head This fog will never lift Wide awake in nothingness A mountain of torture a waits I'll see you at the pearly gates
