Slough Feg - Insomnia lyrics

My eyes are seeing faces in the darkness While my mind is seeing darkness in the light The silent specters that only come out in the night While I'm drowning in the blood of your survival Keeping busy making nightmares of your dreams My violent laughter is only drowned out by your screams And where there's peace of mind You know there's always lies Another victim of your self-protection dies When you ask if I'm afraid of seeing zombies It's the walking animations that I fear The silent specters just waiting for sleep to appear And when people ask me why I'm always grinning It's because I'm seeing faces in the walls The silent shield of insomnia finally falls And when there's peace of mind You know there's always lies Now that this mutant race has left you all behind Another victim of your self-protecting lies And when the battle's over Shackled in time and colder And stamp your witness on the ground Your earthly time elapsing Wittiness the star collapsing When lost in time is lost and found
