Artificial Language – Now We Sleep lyrics

I’m your inner voice bringing things to light
Opening doors to one’s sealed closed, then keeping us inside
I’m sure there’s reasons for lack of control
I am sure there’s reasons for that
We know to well

We’ve done this dance before
As your eyes close, mine awake just in time to let you know

Every day’s a blessing because time is shortening
Wide awake or dead asleep, I never catch dreams

Sometimes self love comes with self harm
The pills are poison only if you want them to be
I wish that we shared the same thoughts, and not the same bed
Choosing who dreams and walks toward death

By the time we’re eaten by the rivers mouth, we’ll be driftwood
Moving with the stray channels, we’ll be

The back of my mind’s deserted
It is time to find your way there and make your peace, without me holding you back
Without me
Without me holding you back

Once again, the void called us towards it’s calming warm embrace
Then, you left me stranded here; when we were so close to our own endless conversations
I’ll sneak away to the surface when you falter again

Every day’s a blessing because time is shortening
Wide awake or dead asleep, I never catch dreams

I can’t tell if you’re worth saving
I can’t tell if you’re worth saving
I can’t tell if you’re worth saving
Who here’s convincing who to lean away from the prize?
Can we save us from ourselves?
