Born of Sleep

In a realm where life flows free and no reign is given I shook the coven from my eyes to inhale the dewy evening air To find long lost courage I beheld to cast a glance And let my soul slip away, beyond to pass Imprisoned I am no longer by these deceptive days I withdrew from life to discern my convictions For the longest time I had been afraid (Out here, in the vast of night) Reality comes apart at the seams (Out here, in the vast of night) A new fate begins to take shape For I am the one who is born of sleep – is born of sleep My consciousness no longer kept me afloat I submerged, saw the surface pass me by (pass me by) Beyond the dusky nightfall’s blue I drifted Where to roam only for me to determine A lucid dream state lured me in By slumber embraced I shall wake once more Giving in to all that had gathered on my eyelids Sweet languor overwhelming, wistful trance come onto me Heal my yearning, to let go of this waking world For in sleep I am reborn (Out here, in the vast of night) Reality comes apart at the seams (Out here, in the vast of night) A new fate begins to take shape We will not at death’s gate slip and fall But triumphantly dance around it all For time immemorial So just close your eyes to sleep, close your eyes Just let go... and drift into the deep So just close your eyes to sleep, close your eyes Just let go... and drift into the deep
