The Waking Sleep

For my soul to reach you
Must I always bleed
For my heart to feel you
Must it always beat
Even the waking sleep
I know time’s a wasting
It is chasing me
While the ice is melting
Into the sea
Even the waking sleep
I know there is a purpose
I know there is an end
I know you are worth it
Will I rise again
There’s a bridge that’s burning
And the water’s near
I see you hurtin'
And I watch in fear
Will I watch you burning
You I love so dear
Even the waking sleep
Even the waking sleep
