"Sleepless Empire" lyrics

"Sleepless Empire"

We're dreaming with open eyes
In a state of disarray
We are like kings locked in a cage
Waiting for salvation that will never come
There is no forever, we will be replaced

Suspended without motion
A syndrome of sedation
Lost in a sleepless empire
It's the infinite cycle
Where past and future are aligned
In a sleepless empire

We're caught up in the rapture
Seduced by short term gains
We only praise false gods
We lack common sense and
Just live for the day
There is no forever
We are not afraid

Suspended without motion
A syndrome of sedation
Lost in a sleepless empire
It's the infinite cycle
Where past and future are aligned
In a sleepless empire

Are we algorithms
Or just an obsolete creation
Enslaved in a world that is eroding?
Living in denial
We're logged in with the same
Old pattern, an easy code
To be remembered
This is a sleepless empire

Suspended without motion
A syndrome of sedation
Lost in a sleepless empire
It's the infinite cycle
Where past and future are aligned
In a sleepless empire

Aeterna insania
Ignifer cruciatus
Neurotic empire
Aeterna insania
Ignifer cruciatus
Perpetua insomnia
Tormentum humanum
We're tossing the dice
Perpetua insomnia
Tormentum humanum
To rule the sleepless empire
