Don’t Wake Me Up

[Intro]
I'll reap what I sow tomorrow
Nothing left to do
Which pill will I pick to swallow?
Is it red or blue?

Burn the pages of the past
As I choke on smoke and ash
Your fading footsteps, I follow
Evil within you

[Verse 1]
Prepare the bath
I'm ready to cleanse
I'm sending myself back
Into that wretched dimension again
Remember, playin' detective isn't effective
When in the stem
Reality has bent and demented
By Evil Within
All that alcohol neglected
Withdrawals have got my job affected
I've fallen farther than expected
To what kind of test am I subjected?
Whatever's left of my family - protect it!
And the memories of death I never accepted
But I still haven't repented
And she'll never let me forget it

[Hook]
Don't wake me up
My grave is dug
How much I hate what I've become
Don't wake me up
Just pull the plug
Filled with regret for all I've done

Though I repent (She won't forget)
That's not enough (Your eyes are shut)
Cuz I've made my bed (Now lay to rest)
So don't wake me up

[Verse 2]
One flash can capture a moment
You've become my muse
Immortalized - time is frozen
Penance is refused
Dream of demons creepin' nearer
Could it simply be the mirror?
But should that glass end up broken..
You might see the truth
Felt the fire, now your mind is sober
Embers left behind, now let them smolder
Art is in the eyes of the beholder
Witness my design, your blood runs colder

[Hook]

[Bridge]
It's time for my guilt to let go
Or I can't progress
I know it's all in my head though
Evil manifests
I'm not one for superstition
The writing on the wall is written
Fall asleep and wake in hell
It's the one you've made yourself

[Hook]
