Asleep Songtext
von Merz

when you love someone and you lose them
sleep is the best way to freedom
from the living pain that you suffer
every day you wake you remember

she is missing from your surroundings
it′s an unpleasant awakening
don't want to live and i don′t ant to die
i just want to be comforted by sleep!

i lost in life didn't lose in death
i wonder which is easiest
i believe in worlds greater than this
places to go places of bliss

she was a friendship gone wrong
this is a world gone wrong
death is so bad parting is harder
sleep is the middle man, sleep is peace!


he's got a freelance lifestyle, he′s a dole dodger
gets his own work if he can be bothered
wakes every morning and looks at the room
wondering if success will come soon

looks at his diary, nothing′s in it
no ideas, no love, no spirit
the weather's appalling
so he buries himself in that warm quilt and sleeps!

sleep can bury your ego
sleep can let your soul go
you can experience deja vu
feel things like light and truth

dream you can master yourself in the future
love everyone that you ever knew
life is a hangover, life is cold, life is a comedown
compared to sleep!

now sleep
