Veni Domine - If I Fall Asleep Lyrics

[Music / Lyrics by Torbjærn Weinesjæ]



These walls are made of glass

Not concrete as they seems

What is wrong with this picture



Behold a gilded frame

Conceals the life within

How is it that no one ever sees



The depth of the colour of the blood red heart

Yet always sees the mask



Who sees behind your eyes

The thoughts that dwell within

The man behind the name

Is like the dead walking



If I fall asleep

Will I wake up in a brand new eden

Where water falls make the only noise I'll know



The heart is far away

Where life begins and ends

With a longing far stronger than failures left behind



Time is for healing

Blending past within future hopes

Performing is every thing

Yet slowly westward sinking



If I fall asleep

Will I wake up in a brand new eden

Where water falls make the only noise I'll know

Watch me fall asleep

I don't mind what ever you see

The golden halls of eden call within



The eyes of the world are watching your back

Wispers in silence the things that you lack

Twisted the souls, of those who bring it into light

The warmth of their hearts like a cold winter night



Watch me fall asleep...
