lyrics

Fall in the maw of slumber
You let your soul be taken
Death walk your own penumbra
The haven of mistaken
Becoming just a fragment of who you really are
The shadow ocean stagnant has let you sink so far

Woah, it’s swallowing you whole
And you’re becoming what you’d never known
And now you’ve lost control

The sludgy tide of shadow slow seeps into your mind
The oceanic pressure erodes your will in time
Your virtue is enraptured by the deceptive deep
It hypnotized your purpose and lulled your love to sleep

Woah, it’s swallowing you whole
And you’re becoming what you’d never known
And now you’ve lost control

Wake up, O sleeper*
As light begins to spill
Wake up, O sleeper
The light is deeper still**

(Guitar solo – Maxwell Kozen)

Wake up!

Woah, it’s*** swallowing you whole
And you’re becoming what you’d never known
And now you’ve lost control

Now you've lost control

* - Ephesians 5:14
** - Betsie ten Boom to her sister Corrie, just prior to her death. Ravensbrück Nazi concentration camp, Northern Germany, Dec 16, 1944. See "The Hiding Place".
*** - That is, the Light, no longer the shadow.
