Don’t Wake Me Up

Lyrics

[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 The 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 [Chorus] 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) 'Cause 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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) 'Cause I've made my bed (Now lay to rest) So don't wake me up [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 [Chorus] 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) 'Cause I've made my bed (Now lay to rest) So don't wake me up
