Forever

I will sleep forever,
From tomorrow until the end of time
Reality ties down and slaughters
My deepest dreams and hopes

Illusions fade away if I wake up
And the dark light becomes eternal.
I rather stay between life and death
Forever as the pendulum that never stops.

Do not disturb my flaming sleep
It would only break me to hear your last farewell.
Eyes closed shut and blinded sight
Protected from the vengeful monster inside.

Remaining between two worlds unknown
Can calm my pain of letting go.
In a limbo of lies and masks I would rather stay
Even if I never get to see another day.
