The Sleeping Beauty

Dedicated to Hannah StjarnvindAlone I sit, I wonder why

You dream of love and so do I

But in your sleep you cannot see

This pain which is always haunting me

What I need I'll never feel

This world is for me unreal

So I drink to darkness with a candle lit

And through the whole night alone I sitThe sleeping beauty

She stops the bleeding

She stops the bleeding in my soul

She is fresh air in this stinking worldThe more I drink, the more I see

That suicide could be the key

To the place called paradise

Where pain not dwells, not hate nor lies

But if I look beyond all this

I reckon something I would surely miss

Because in my dreams I rule my life

And the sleeping beauty is my wife
