There's a boy they call the sleepin' man, he's been asleep for days There's a girl lyin' next to him, following his ways Dreaming of a foreign place, where the people always pray Nowhere else to run to...now So this is where they stay That's all she wanted to hear That's all she wanted to hear Sleep another year.... I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr Somethin' don't seem right....In you A broken will to testify, a thorn on either side Empty bottles lyin' next to him, keeps him satisfied Voices on that dead end street, make you feel so fine Wake up son it's time to go, you're runnin' out of time... And that's all he wanted to hear
That's all he wanted to hear Sleep another year... I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr Somethin' don't seem right..In you He dreamed until his heart was still or so the story goes.. Can't remember how he got that way cause he's forgot more than he knows... Drift into a foreign place, seems like yesterday.. Nowhere else to run to...now, alone he starts to pray And that's all she wanted to hear That's all she wanted to hear Sleep another year... I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight Cause it's gonna' be a long night, anytime, everytime.... Anytime In you...
