When the city sleeps.
The heart beats in sheets.
While the enemy is walking the streets.
There in your thoughts and in your dreams.
There all you see.
Darkness eats the streets.
When the city sleeps....everyone weeps....
I pray the lord your soul to keep.
Now nothing makes sense.
You cannot leave these wicked things.
All those screams they mean your too far gone
to keep grasping for anything.
When the city sleeps...
Instincts scream retreat.
But you cannot leave the loneliness that creeps.
All the horror that you have seen.
When the city sleeps....
When the city sleeps....
There's kings and thieves and shattered memories.
Broken glass and blood shed.
Dark soul of night is fighting in your head.
Second guessing yourself.
Are you alive or dead?
Cursed souls on crosses shall they be nailed?
Cast out from atop the hills to valleys of death.
New depths of pain it shall unveil!
When the city sleeps.
Instincts scream retreat.
But you cannot leave the loneliness that creeps.
All the horror that you have seen.
When the city sleeps is when you feel complete.
Your heart pounds with anxiety,pumping adrenaline streams.
Now you've lost yourself and burnt down your dreams,noones left beside you where they should be.
Your maker ye shall meet.
When the city sleeps.
Instincts scream retreat.
But you cannot leave the loneliness that creeps.
All the horror that you have seen.
When the city sleeps.
When the city sleeps.
No more heartbeats!
Against your will.
Enveloped by darkness still.
Pulled and pushed and punished by the chill!
No weapons will take or break my soul and prosperity shall prevail.
Your maker ye shall meet!
When the city sleeps.
Instincts scream retreat.
But you cannot leave the loneliness that creeps.
All the horror that you have seen.
When the city sleeps.
When the city sleeps.
