Sleepaway by The Mocked Lyrics
[Intro: Drew Rushline]
Before the day was broken
Before I had to fight
There was a song that guided us back home late at night
It said to open doors
And to keep the past inside
It said to live in harmony
With the background and the pride
So dragged by my own arms
I watched the crowd disperse
The dark side tried to reason
With the long-awaited curse
But I couldn't unwrap the mystery
And it meant nothing at all
But soon enough the answers
Started bouncing off the walls
[Verse 1: Drew Rushline]
Sonny do you hear the echoes from the night
Or is your mind fixated on your story?
This house that's made of dreams is founded on your fright
But I swear this future will bring you to tears
[Pre-Chorus: Drew Rushline]
Kiss that sill goodbye
And become an abstract warrior
[Chorus]
Static in the sky
You're not allowed to wonder
Take a bullet for the coming
Cause we're going under
Whisper to all you've had
It was nice to know you
Starving for a change
I think it's time to show you
Home
[Verse 2: Drew Rushline]
Sonny, do you see the man up in the clouds
Looking down through parted faces just show you there's a sun
Even the sharpest men can trip up on dramatic closure
Since they know the future can bring them to tears
[Pre-Chorus #2: Drew Rushline]
Let the moon collapse
And become an abstract warrior
[Chorus]
[Bridge: Drew Rushline]
And do you feel that disturbance?
Does it make you want to save a life?
I'm not unhappy with today
But I will make you into a man
And do you feel that fire?
Don't let the future singe you
I don't know if you want to take this risk
But sonny, I know you can
[Chorus] (2x)
Before the day was broken
Before I had to fight
There was a song that guided us back home late at night
It said to open doors
And to keep the past inside
It said to live in harmony
With the background and the pride

I watched the crowd disperse
The dark side tried to reason
With the long-awaited curse
But I couldn't unwrap the mystery
And it meant nothing at all
