Before the Dawn - Monsters (Soundscape of Silence - 2008)
4am I'm still awake
Before the dawn the Sandman will
come with nightmares
I won't let him in
There's nothing in my head
Empty walls, empty bed
I am just waiting
Restless beats of heart
and breathing break the silence
I am still here
The absence of light narrows my eyesight
But still I see them
It's not angels that sing
And call me by my true name
They have forsaken me
Dead tired but aware
Sleep invites the demons,
I am not prepared
I have to stay awake
There are monsters in my head
On my walls, under my bed
I am dying I am jaded, I am numb,
I am counting on the sun
Salvation to come
