While I was Asleep

Some faces never fade.

Etched in our minds, while age pulls and tears and tries to change

But memories last while skin decays

The worst you can do you've already done.

Committed your crimes and tried to run

But I would give every breath in my lungs if I caught you.

While I was asleep, my mind, got it all wrong and I died.

Cuz I dreamed that I lost you

So I woke up and touched you.

Time is change, what remains is intention and empathy

Fountains of youth in my mind are all dried up

What's left is enough

We can smile and just fade away

While I was asleep, my mind, got it all wrong and I died.

Cuz I dreamed that I lost you

So I woke up and touched you and you saved my life - will happily help you

Down the wrong path, be careful don't choose to never be filled with grace

You're afraid of entrusting yourself with the truth that you always felt inside

I was afraid to try 'til you

While I was asleep, my mind got it all wrong and I died

Cuz I dreamed that I'd lost you.

So I woke up and touched you

Your delicate bones are a home

I'll fill in the cracks and patch all the holes

In 50 years more I'll open the door

Where I had held up just to keep myself warm

And when finally the cold sets in, we will lie down

We will be lost inside of a dream and you will find me, finding you.
