Sleeping Beauty Lyrics

A Perfect Circle Sleeping Beauty

delusional
i believed i could cure it all
for you dear
coax or trick or drive or
drag the demons from you
make it right for you sleeping beauty
truly thought
i could magically heal you

you're far beyond a visible
sign of your awakening
failing miserably to rescue
sleeping beauty

drunk on ego
truly thought i could make it right if i
kissed you one more time to
help you face the nightmare but you're
far too poisoned for me
such a fool to think that i could wake you from your slumber
that i could actually heal you

sleeping beauty
poisoned and hopeless

far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
failing miserably to find a way to comfort you
far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
hiding from some poisoned memory

poisoned and hopeless
sleeping beauty
