"The Sun Sleeps" lyrics

"The Sun Sleeps"

The shattered soul in a lifetime of regret
Decay, we enter the blight

Speak to me as if I'm all that's left
A broken soul in the wasteland
The promise that you seek
An act of kindness to sever the silence once and for all
Exonerate me, exonerate me for every promise that I make

How do you sleep at night
With a war inside you
How does it feel to die
Knowing I've forgotten you
I've forgotten you
Forgotten you

I strive to heal what's hollow
But every breath will stay the same
The simple forms the complicated
Erratically in vain
Bound to swallow the bliss just to spit out the pain
Naively thinking resentment turns to dust
For every promise that I make

How do you sleep at night
With a war inside you
How does it feel to die
Knowing I've forgotten you
I've forgotten you
I've forgotten you

The shattered soul in a lifetime of regret
Decay, we enter the blight
Can I forget my flesh and blood
My flesh and blood
Yet I have abandoned you
No more tears
I belong to another

How do you sleep at night
How does it feel to die
Knowing I've forgotten you
I've forgotten you
I've forgotten you

Speak to me
As if I'm all that's left
Speak to me
A broken soul in the wasteland
