lyrics

I travel to the centre of the earth to meet my man, to make a deal.
I sold my soul to find out what it's worth, what it's really worth, and it's a steal.
Been walking for so long my shoes are worn, and my feet are torn.
Can't stop the bleeding.
Wish I could, wish I could take it back. Take my body back, so I can feel it.
Don't wake me up, I'm only sleeping, just leave me, release me.
Don't wake me up, I'm only sleeping, just leave me here.
Let me be, let me be. Let me be, let me be. Just leave me here.
No sky above me only orange light, can't see the stars tonight from where I kneel.
Try to free myself but my hands are tied and I'm terrified this is real, this is real. This is real.
Don't wake me up, I'm only sleeping, just leave me, release me.
Don't wake me up, I'm only sleeping, just leave me here.
No sky above me only orange light, can't see the stars tonight from where I kneel.
Wish I could, wish I could take it back. Take my body back, so I can feel. I can feel. I can feel. I can feel.
Don't wake me up, I'm only sleeping, just leave me, release me.
Don't wake me up, I'm only sleeping, just leave me here. And let me be, let me be, let me be.
No sky above me only orange light, can't see the stars tonight from where I kneel.
Wish I could, wish I could take it back. Take my body back, so I can feel. I can feel. I can feel. I can feel.
