Steel Prophet - Sleep Of Despair lyrics

I can see around me in this lucid state My own mind controls my real fate But if I wake from slumber, then returns despair Of the days depression, forgets the dreams I share If I sleep in peace do I loose my sin? Or does it linger to when the day begin I've been trying for so long now to avoid the crimes of mind The things I want, desire can it damn me from all peace I lie awake and pray for sleep to take the sorrow away for now In the dreams I'll find new hope, will hope ever cure my ills? I hear a woman's voice is calling A voice I've never heard I have no vision of her image My dread is growing, I don't know If I even care to wake up I know my fear will extend still The inner workings of my mind Can never sleep or calm my soul The troubled waters of my world Aren't consumed by restful sleep Now upon the mornings rising I find life's gauntlet carries on In a building with no doorways Escape can never be, reach out with emotion Despair my only love I find my way through the dreams of doom Despair reaches out in the black of night Embracing my life's dream I still resist/break the curse/my faith Will live/where hope denies my peace/ And through revealed/ in fragments of my mind/ My will exists/to roam the corridors of life I am the force, I've searched and sought so long My name is his through ancient dreams may now obscure
