The Great Sleep

A populace unknowing

Caught in a dangerous trance

So focused on the meaningless

That we've failed to see what's real

Sleeping away

While the storm quietly moves in

Distracted and unconcious

Lost in a perpetual fog

Burdened with hollow desires

Failing to see our end is near

Sleeping away

Now awaikening

Into the nightmare

Our comfort breeds our numbness

Our numbness fools our minds

Now they've fooled us all

It's only a matter of time

Paralyzed by a false sense of worth

What will it take to break through this coma

Our standards have all been broken

Oblivious to this vile coup

Falling asleep, falling away from reason

Hallucination of the grandest of scales

Slowly we wake, too late to escape the horror

Helpless we march in

And take our world away

Sleeping away

While the storm, quietly moves in

Sleeping away

Awakening into the nightmare

Sleeping away

Never to awaken again
