Lyrics

Behind the Wall of Sleep

[Verse 1]

Visions cupped within a flower

Deadly petals with strange power

Faces shine a deadly smile

Look upon you at your trial

[Verse 2]

Chill that numbs from head to toe

Icy sun with frosty glow

Why'd you go reaching your sorrow?

Why'd you go read, "No tomorrow"?

[Bridge]

Feel your spirit rise with the breeze

Feel your body falling to its knees

Sleeping wall of remorse

Turns your body to a corpse

Turns your body to a corpse

Turns your body to a corpse

If you want, all remorse

Turns your body to a corpse

[Verse 3]

Now, from darkness, there springs light

Wall of sleep is cold and bright

Wall of sleep is lying broken

Sun shines in, you have awoken
