Sleep:Less Songtext

von Icon Of Coil

Let me see the world you're building now
Fear and anger feel 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 skin still haunts me down
I'm on my knees
Trying to imagine how it must have been
The soil is still crying
The rust and the leaves
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 had never died
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 haunt the dreams
Of those who stole your breathe
Ask them how they possibly can sleep at night
Send them my regards and 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 had never died
Why don't you answer me
Don't leave us empty handed
