dead asleep - dream theater lyrics

Loading...

[instrumental intro]

[verse 1]
in a waterside village
in the heat of july
a man and his wife settled down for the night
in the morning, he woke to a horrible sight

it’s all just so tragic, an unusual case
the violent result of a fatal mistake
how can he be to blame?
he was never awake

[chorus]
wake up!
what have i done?
i was dead asleep
wake up!
can you send someone?
i’m not insane, i was dead asleep

[verse 2]
scrambling in the darkness, in fear for his life
certain a k!ller broke in
he fumbles for a weapon, reaches for a knife
a sleepwalking murder begins
it was a vivid encounter, a realistic fight
and now he’s got blood on his hands
he stands over the body, sees it’s his wife
a nightmare he can’t understand

[pre*chorus]
i must confess it was me
i needed to silence the screams
she suffered a brutal attack
a shockingly violent act

[chorus]
wake up!
what have i done?
i was dead asleep
wake up!
can you send someone?
i’m not insane, i was dead asleep

[bridge]
out of my mind, out of my body
someone’s been k!lled, i am sorry
out of control, all out of answers
maybe one day you’ll forgive me

[guitar solo]
[keyboard solo]

[instrumental break]

[chorus]
wake up!
what have i done?
i was dead asleep
i must have been dreaming, i have no memory of anything

[outro]
we strongly suspect you’re feeling a sense of despair
no one knows of the guilt that you bear
in the eyes of the law, you are free
you are innocent

[instrumental outro]
