Analysis of Lament.
Sleep
Dont Open your eyes
Please
Dont realize
They're gone
Torn to pieces
All along
I didnt mean this
Hands Slick
Blood of angels
Another Trick
Strangled
Sleep
Dont wake up
Please
Dont wake up
I'll hold you close
Room temperature
you'll never know
what you were
What I'd give
To keep you safe
Live
Just to keep you safe
Sleep
