Wake - Vices

There was a death in the family

Now I’m thinking of my own mortality

Infinite time before and after this life that I lead

Being honest

It’s hard not to feel insignificant

I don’t think that there’s anything after this

Just sleep, just sleep

I approach death the same

Restless until the end

Until without noticing one takes me over

I am petrified of unconsciousness far more than I am of death

It’s the uncertainty

Will I wake again?

Will I wake again?

This year marks the end of my act one

My opening scene is done

Will I wake again?

Will I wake again?

This year marks the end of my act one

My opening scene is done

Will I wake again?

Will I wake again?

This year marks the end of my act one

My opening scene is done

When I sleep the last time

I don’t think it’ll be like every night just staring at the same damn ceiling

Waiting for something to happen

Will I wake again?

Will I wake again?

When I’m dead

Burn my body and bury the ashes

Forget me like dreams never remembered

I am flesh

I am bone

I was never here

I was the back of your eyes

The dreams of love and fire mask

Until we’re cold and the fire is gone
