The Sleeper

Alone alone is what you are
A focused man with a mindless cause
You're empty, you are broken
To say that you're unstable would be understated
The company you keep has kept you medicated well enough to forget who you are
And conceal this monster I've become

Danger! Danger!
What's your purpose here?
Have you come to take my mind away, so I won't know?
Caution, caution
Pain is mixed with fear
Has it come to take my mind away, so I won't know?

To all the ones I've left behind, ignored, and said I'm sorry
Can you forgive the things I've done?
I hurt the closest people to me
You saw the awful thing I was
I can't promise the smoke will never blow this way again
But I can tell you the fire brings a beginning to this end

I'm not perfect, I'm not quick
But I have so much more than this
I will walk away

Danger! Danger!
What's your purpose here?
Have you come to take my mind away, so I won't know?
Caution, caution
Pain is mixed with fear
Has it come to take my mind away, so I won't know?

And I have danced around, but it has hit me, it has hit me in my sleep
I have danced around, but it has hit me, it has it me

...and now it's all gone to my head
