Asleep Lyrics by Wolves At The Gate

Types & Shadows

2016

[Verse 1]
Eyes wide in this reverie but it’s all still dark as night
I’m falling fast asleep
Black tides of my misery coming down upon my sight
I drown into the deep
Is there but a ghost inside these bones?
[Chorus]
Come now My darling! Come now beloved, My love it calls you!
[Verse 2]
Am I just a ghost inside these bones?
Walking as the dead; hearts made of stone
Nightmares of my darkest fears all around crippled with fright
I’m falling fast asleep
[Chorus]
Come now My darling! Come now beloved, My love it calls you!
Come away My darling! Come now beloved, My love remains for you!
[Bridge]
I’m lost, so long!
The spirit’s willing, but the flesh is weak
I hear Your song!
My fears are chilling so I dare not speak
For you, My blood was spilled
But I made my bed in hell
In you I see no guilt
But you know how far I fell
My friend be wretched, mourn and weep
Oh, may it wake you from your sleep
[Verse 3]
Am I just a ghost inside these bones?
Walking as the dead; hearts made of stone
Hasten up my feet so I may fly
Wash me now, my God, or I will die
Black tides of my misery coming down upon my sight
[Chorus]
Come now My darling! Come now beloved, My love it calls you!
Come away My darling! Come now beloved, My love remains for you!
[Outro]
I'm lost, so long!
The spirit's willing, but the flesh is weak
I hear Your song!
My fears are chilling so I dare not speak
Though You know how far I fell
You've saved my soul from hell
