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
