seen things lately
|
I can't get off my mind
|
they frustrate me
|
and keep me up at night
|
|
oh lord, does your watchful eye
|
see the news-every night
|
via satellite on T.V.
|
|
while my god was sleeping
|
pain was on the rise
|
when my heart stopped beating
|
god was far and sleeping
|
|
a lot like torture
|
as pleasant as it seems
|
a wheel of fortune
|
with sandy beaches and bad, bad dreams
|
|
hey man, what's with your eyes
|
what do you see-from up so high
|
are you hypnotized or just lazy
|
|
while my god was sleeping
|
pain was on the rise
|
the blade that cuts so deeply
|
made me realize
|
|
while my god was sleeping
|
sleeping like a child
|
who never said his vespers
|
he's sleeping now forever
|
|
I stopped to watch my life
|
to watch it passing by?/p>
|
|
I love you god, I pay the price
|
I want to make this sacrifice forever
|
|
while my god was sleeping
|
strangers lost their lives
|
when their hearts stopped beating
|
|
god was far and sleeping
|
while my god was sleeping
|
sleeping like a child
|
who never said his vespers
|
he's sleeping now forever
