While I'm Asleep
Only in the darkness
 You are able to see
 Painting a picture in your mind
 But it won't last forever.
 
 You are able to see
 Even with closed eyes
 But it won't last forever 
 Day must come.
 
 Even with closed eyes
 You are living
 Day must come
 And life goes on.
 
 You are living
 During the night
 And life goes on
 Brighter than before.
 
 During the night
 You come to a place
 Brighter than before
 Most of the time.
 
 You come to a place
 And life has meaning 
 Most of the time
 Until you're awakened.
 
 Life has meaning
 Under the stars
 Until you're awakened
 And it all disappears.
 
 Under the stars
 You lay alone
 And it all disappears
 Until you cone alive again.
 
 You lay alone
 Painting a picture in your mind
 Until you come alive again
 Only in darkness.
