lyrics

Carve your circles in the pavement
Ever deeper – everlasting
Frozen clock face – dream of purpose
There is blood beneath the sheets
Rip through skin – dig for the bone
Wailing somnambulists


The silent walls of night
Tower around the waking mind
Closing in, crumbling down
You can’t wake up
You can’t wake up
The forceful hand of might
Like a nightmare on your chest
Whispering the truths of life
You can’t give up
You can’t give up
You can’t give up now


It will not be night much longer
There will be so much to do
Statues to topple
Gods to slay

Carve your letters into marble
Ever deeper – everlasting
Spinning clock face – dream of progress
Yet there’s blood beneath the sheets
Shredded skin and shattered bone
Waking somnambulists

The lidless eye so bright
Towers above the waiting mind
Shines a light on all our failures
You can’t move on
You can’t move at all
The formless voice of doubt
Echoes all throughout the halls
Speaks of the end
You can’t go on

And our bones sink to the bedrock
Of a world we did not form
A lifetime spent in mindless motion
A foreign voice spoke through us all

And we swore there would be greatness
And we swore it would get better
And we waited patiently

Carve your name into the tides
Ever drifting – everlasting
Wayward somnambulists
