lyrics

Signs and sounds of a struggle
There's a rattle in the air
No chalk outline around the victim
Tho the body's lying there
There's a rising wave of anger
Cos it seems just like a crime
But it's nothing unusual
In fact it happens all the time

And she said: I'll always think of you
Even when my eyes aren't open
And I, I said: I'll always dream of you
Even if my sleep is broken

It's hard not to turn away
When we see the stab of pain
Our exhale comes slowly
When we hear the sad refrain
It's all thunder and quiet
Thru the shadows of the room
Wishing it goes on forever
But hoping it all ends soon

And she said: I'll always think of you
Even if my eyes aren't open
And I, I said: I'll always dream of you
Even if my sleep is broken
And she, she said: Don't be scared
Even in this moment
And I, I said: I'll always dream of you
Even if my sleep is broken
Even when my sleep is broken

The eyes are closed and still
And it looks so much like sleep
But it somehow seems too light
Tho soon will be too deep
A sad, shared resignation
That her eyes will never again open
How can there be peace in the room
When we know sleep is broken?

And she said: I'll always think of you
Even if my eyes aren't open
And I, I said: I'll always dream of you
Even if my sleep is broken
And she, she said: Don't be scared
Even in this moment
And I, I said: I'll always dream of you
Even if my sleep is broken
Even when my sleep is broken
Even tho my sleep is broken
Broken now
