Assemblage 23 - How Can You Sleep? lyrics

A conscience never burdened you No empathy to slow you down Others were there for you to use Like hapless ships you ran aground How can you sleep? The world burns at your feet How can you forsake The casualties you leave in your wake? You lied like other people breathe Speaking a twisted lexicon To get your way by any means No matter who you tread upon How can you sleep? The world burns at your feet How can you forsake The casualties you leave in your wake? The saddest part is you believed The world you fashioned in your mind While all the people you deceived Were slowly plotting your demise How can you sleep? The world burns at your feet How can you forsake The casualties you leave in your wake?
