SVS XI - Lay Me Down

So cold, and so alone
The emptiness chills to the bone
You're everywhere but you're nowhere in sight
So afraid to close my eyes
You're waiting on the other side
There's no escape in a world with no light

I hear you screaming out my name
Or have I finally gone insane?

As I lay me down to sleep
You prey my soul to keep
I feel your touch
Is it real or fantasy?
As I lay me down to sleep
You prey my soul to keep

Forever we're intertwined
Shackled by the chains that bind
Resistance fades when there's nothing to fight
I'm feeling our worlds collide
I'm leaving everything behind
Giving my last breath for your love at first bite

You hear me screaming out your name
Am I crying out in vain?

As I lay me down to sleep
You prey my soul to keep
I feel your touch
It always cuts too deep
As I lay me down to sleep
You prey my soul to keep

The rain above
Hypnotizing me
With illusions of
A life of immortality

As I lay me down to sleep
You prey my soul to keep
I feel your touch
Is it real or fantasy?
As I lay me down to sleep
You prey my soul to keep
The pain of love
It always cuts too deep

As I lay you down to sleep
I prey your soul to keep
The reign of blood
It's overwhelming me
As I lay you down to sleep
I prey your soul to keep
