Sinuous Slumber

from Death of the Dream by Channel the Animal

/

lyrics

Administer the drugs! Keep it on a leash!
Drown it in delirium until imagination dies

Oh, I’m terrified
To go outside
Of my dumbed-down drudgery

What is this blank horror visited upon my mind?
I can’t even weep for my own dead soul
Every night my mind is dragged down to this wretched place
Sick of self-medicating into submission my subconscious

Ah, but no more!
I surrender
I await my fate

Go to sleep and pray for silence from my fucked-up mind
This is where I make my stand against the rising tide

What dreams may come?
I await…
The beating of the eardrum summons them!
The urge grows stronger

Rolling over, staying sober, this is how I die
(Deus ex machina, odious slime)
This will kill me if I stay here, this is not the time
(I need to feel this, I need to resign)

(Let me play you all my nightmares and my nervous breakdowns)
Go to sleep and pray for silence from my tortured mind
I will not drown you – this time!

Bring it on!
Let me feel it full force!
No closing off or staying strong
I see what lies beneath the lake of alcohol

Get out of my sobered mind!
You don’t belong here!
This is a safe space!
Disgrace!

I battle through the bedlam
For I have better dreams to meet
I’ll see you on the other side
