"The Sleeping And The Dead" lyrics - BORN OF OSIRIS

BORN OF OSIRIS
"The Sleeping And The Dead"

As I witness, you fall behind
I continue and start to rise
Now you're after a droning daze
To fall back and to sulk in your shame

In connection we find a game so obvious
Planned from the start, can't explain why it distracts us

I'm delirious and the air is thinning
The room is spinning and I am sitting
Every breath I'm consuming my own doubt

It still keeps us alive (see there's an evil that's outraged)
Still it keeps us alive (resistance plays at our heart strings)

When the weight comes down (the weight comes down)
You reject it, just accept it
Thinking you need out
You create it, you can escape it

This urgency you feel each second
Will never leave don't ever think it's the end

I'm delirious and the air is thinning
The room is spinning and I am sitting
Every breath I'm consuming my own doubt

It still keeps us alive (see there's an evil that's outraged)
Still it keeps us alive (resistance plays at our heart strings)

Alive to keep us reckless, with toxins in ours veins
While basic operators, follow directions and play the game

What you say in your head is not what you tell the world

It still keeps us alive (see there's an evil that's outraged)
Still it keeps us alive (resistance plays at our heart strings)
Destroying all my fears
Just as the picture is about to come clear
I dissemble
(Falling to the ground I) dissemble
(Shattered on the floor I) dissemble
(Picking up the pieces as I) dissemble
...
Destroying all my fears
Just as the picture is about to come clear
I dissemble, dissemble
