Wake Lyrics

Asylum Xiii Wake

Nocturnal shades are calling
screaming unknown sin
though i see i still
fall in pain again
the sirens never cease
to call me to the gate
i'm on the edge arms outstretched
push me before it's too late

(chorus)~now i lay me down to sleep
pray the lord my soul to keep
if i die before i wake
i'll be a happy man this time (2x)

seclusion, delusion
this madness washes clean
your love, my illusion
your sanctity obscene
your lies, alibies
the countless beds a fest
the illness cutting deep
unchain this foolish beast

(chorus)(instrumental)(chorus)

seclusion, delusion
this madness washes clean
your love, my illusion
your sanctity obscene
the sirens never cease
to call me to the gate
i'm on the edge arms outstretched
push me before it's too late

(chorus)
