The Sleeper Awakens

Empty as I lay here in waiting

Looking for a sign of life within this gloomy soul

Our time has expired but I will not let go

Inside of me I fight this battle alone

[Chorus:]

And the full moon will rise

On this world we've forsaken

Now that we've finally arrived

Let the sleeper awaken

Dystopia your children lay broken

Now sleep and dream through this future uncertain

Let the sun warm my face as my eyes burn with sulfur

Let me drink from your fountain just to die then of hunger

[Chorus]

Pain leaves their eyes

Now is there hope or only a fantasy?

Feel the change now with the dawn

Wondering what's to become

Expediency of death and birth

Descending into this blackened earth

Shadows cast to obstruct our view

Concealing us from a shameful truth

Cling the rotten breast and thirst for life

Hear the weeping brood of all mankind

Pain leaves their eyes

Now is there hope or only a fantasy?
