Lyrics
Sleeper
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Dropped in seclusion
The eye of the storm
The art of deception
Influence inform
It’s empty, consuming
Wish I could forestall the morning I become betrayer of them all
Deceive and infiltrate
Confuse control their fate
A pattern developed
I’ve learned to perform
A good little liar
False feelings on show
It’s so disembodied the crackling voice
Making it known that I have no choice
Deceive and infiltrate
Confuse control their fate
Deceive and infiltrate
It’s the curse of the unknown soldier
But it’s all that I’ve come to know
I am the sleeper trapped in this cell that haunts me
It’s the curse of the unknown soldier
But it’s all that I’ve come to know
I am the sleeper trapped in this cell that haunts me
(That haunts me)
It’s unforgivable
It’s so dismal
The only life I will ever know
Draws to a close
It’s the curse of the unknown soldier
But it’s all that I’ve come to know
I am the sleeper trapped in this cell that haunts me
It’s the curse of the unknown soldier
But it’s all that I’ve come to know
I am the sleeper trapped in this cell that haunts me
(That haunts me)
