Sleeping Martyr

There's a boy they call the sleeping man
He's been asleep for days
There's a girl lying next to him
Following his ways

Dreaming of a foreign place
Where the people always pray
Nowhere else to run to now
So this is where they stay

That's all she wanted to hear
That's all she wanted to hear
Sleep another year

I will in time forget the order
Wake up the sleeping martyr
I will in time forget the order
Wake up the sleeping martyr
Something don't seem right
In you

A broken will to testify
A thorn on either side
Empty bottle lying next to him
Keeps him satisfied

Voices on that dead-end street
Make you feel so fine
Wake up son it's time to go
You're running out of time...

And that's all he wanted to hear
That's all he wanted to hear
Sleep another year

I will in time forget the order
Wake up the sleeping martyr
I will in time forget the order
Wake up the sleeping martyr
Something don't seem right
In you

He dreamed until his heart was still
Or so the story goes
Can't remember how he got that way
Cause he forgot more than he knows

Drift into a foreign place
Seems like yesterday
Nowhere else to run to now
Alone he starts to pray

And that's all she wanted to hear
That's all she wanted to hear
Sleep another year

I will in time forget the order
Wake up the sleeping martyr
I will in time forget the order
Wake up the sleeping martyr

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight
'Cause it's gonna be a long night
Anytime, every time
Anytime in you
In you
In you
