Bitter Sleep Lyrics

[Verse 1: Duncan Green]
A broken song sliced apart
Through the muffle of my bitter sleep
Ensnared by death, I call out
Take me to the river and cleanse my former self
Of the agony I suffered here
Death has held my head above water for three long years
Take me or fucking leave me
I'm sick of fighting for every breath
What's the point of holding me to life
If it's no better than death? Collapse
The blood in my veins is filled with poison
Suffering behind the guise of a healing potion

[Chorus: Logan Jahr]
An unseen hand has taken me hostage
The life I once held fades to grey
Let me sleep the night away

[Breakdown: Duncan Green]
My suffering can't last forever
I've broken enough, death take me
Your presence taunts me
I'm starting to lose my grip on reality

[Verse 2: Duncan Green]
Cleanse me of my own body (My own body)
What's the point of holding me to life
If it's no better than death?
Three years have passed
And I've been suppressing my last breath
I can see the end, take me
There's no fighting my disease
I'll succumb to the illness inside me
Pain has shredded every bit of uncertainty
[Chorus: Logan Jahr]
An unseen hand has taken me hostage
The life I once held fades to grey
Let me sleep the night away

[Outro: Duncan Green]
My family, forgive me
I'm sorry
You know I've been fighting this whole time
Please look me in the eye
