Lyrics for Song: Sleep:Less
Lyrics for Album: Machines Are Us [2004]
Let me see the world you're building now
Fear and anger feels so sweet
It's hard to hear your voice, when it's only in my head
It's a part of you in everyone I meet
Your screams still hunt me down, I'm on my knees
Trying to imagine how it must have been
The soil is still crying, the rust on the leafs
Will never fade away from the pictures in my head
Tell me that you're here
That you never went
That it's all a dream
This has never been
Why don't you answer me, don't leave us empty handed
Though I know it's real
But still I try
Cause in my world
You would never die
Why don't you answer me, don't leave us empty handed
Every night, sleepless, how I want a second chance
For what it's worth, to say I'm sorry
And to say our last goodbye, how I regret that I didn't stay
To hear your laughter one last time
When you hunt the dreams of those who stole your breath
Ask them how they possibly can sleep at night
Send them my regards, that I'll be waiting
Here, in front of your grave, I'll be waiting
Tell me that you're here
That you never went
That it's all a dream
This has never been
Why don't you answer me, don't leave us empty handed
Though I know it's real
But still I try
Cause in my world
You would never die
Why don't you answer me, don't leave us empty handed
