Reliqa - Insomnia

Ten thousand years I’ve waited for the dawn - I travel southward This is the turning point What does nostalgia mean to me? It’s hard to stay in line when all I’ve done is walk in circles -But now I’m cutting corners Burden breaks, the mirror cracks, and I fall Down! I’ll go down singing silent pleas to A face that I once loved- a face that I used to know Demons found me but something’s got me paralysed Sleep has denied me -And got me waking up - insomnia Four thousand lives I’ve lived and now I trace four thousand footsteps The apparition in my head reflects what’s haunting me I feel my strings begin to fray - my wit will surely fracture I feel my curtains draw a close; I turn away; embrace the applause I’ll go down singing silent pleas to A face that I once loved- a face that I used to know Demons found me but something’s got me paralysed Sleep has denied me -And got me waking up - insomnia All of my lives have reappeared Trapped me in the dark; so clear I might find my way down here All of my lives have disappeared Lost within the atmosphere I might find my way down here Way down here All of my lives have disappeared Feel my conscience start to clear Waging wars, but I’m still here Go down singing silent pleas to A face that I once loved- a face that I used to know Demons found me but something’s got me paralysed Sleep has denied me -And got me waking up - insomnia
