Lyrics

''Lyrics are fan interpretations only, no official lyrics given yet.''


We're balanced on the edge of a knife
Sleepeater slowly turning
Break it down, set it alight
He's here to start it burning

Wait until you're in the bedroom
Know that you're alone at night
You wanna see it live forever
You hope that you can keep it tight
Everything you ever valued
Know that you will have to fight
Wanna see it live forever

I will take you away from this emergency
At the end of the day you're your own worst enemy

Brothers take your sisters and hide
We see the storm clouds rolling
Differences between you and I
Have already
Prepared and started running

Wait until you're in the bedroom
Know that you're alone at night
You wanna see it live forever
You hope that you can keep it tight
Everything you ever valued
Know that you will have to fight
Wanna see it live forever

I will take you away from this emergency
At the end of the day you're your own worst enemy
Take you to heaven, put you through hell
As long as you don't look down
We can do it together, hands in my arms
Nothing can hurt you now

Sleep
Sleepeater
Sleep

Take you to heaven, put you through hell
As long as you don't look down
We can do it together, hands in my arms
Nothing can hurt you now

I will take you away from this emergency
At the end of the day you're your own worst enemy
Take you to heaven, put you through hell
As long as you don't look down
We can do it together, hands in my arms
Nothing can hurt you now
