The Waking Sleep

For my soul to reach you

Must I always bleed

For my heart to feel you

Must it always beat

Even the waking sleep

I know time's a wasting

It is chasing me

While the ice is melting

Into the sea

Even the waking sleep

I know there is a purpose

I know there is an end

I know you are worth it

Will I rise again

There's a bridge that's burning

And the water's near

I see you hurtin'

And I watch in fear

Will I watch you burning

You I love so dear

Even the waking sleep

Even the waking sleep
