In Forgotten Sleep Lyrics

Slowly awakened by the light, these silent goodbyes to a
Life of mere flashes before my eyes, the memory will die by night
Though I try to recall, all that I saw, here I wait for sunrise

If the sun gave away to mortal decay
Into darkness I would roam,
At its last sunset, we should not forget
As we still carry on

The somber chill that enslaved the very air, held me breathless before
And songs unsung revive what we lived for, yet we still search for more
As the cold gives away, to a new day, that we dared not hope for

Here I look out far
In this forbidden place
And remember days long past
To find strength for today

And if hope had failed
We might not have lived at all
Gazing at the darkened sky
We can still see the stars

If the sun gave away to mortal decay
Into darkness I would roam,
at its last sunset, we should not forget
As we still carry on (and on)

I recall the subtle chill
As the quiet settles in
It must be a test of will

And if I feared this scene
Its because I must have known this
In my darkest dreams

Deep in the dark
We found our hearts
And sorrow we reaped
In forgotten sleep

If the sun gave away to mortal decay
Into darkness I would roam,
at its last sunset, we should not forget
As we still carry on
