A brass band is playing 
Rehearsing its thrills 
All half-moon and cloudy, 
All golden and shrill 

I've got a sleep that burns 
A sleep that burns 
Got a sleep that burns all night 

I'm locked in your dark world 
Where hearts hold the keys, 
Half-opened, enchanted, half-truth 

and 

Half Dreams... 

I'm sitting at a cafe in Paradise... 
Naked as a razor, I'm loaded as a dice... 
The waitresses all ask me for my price 
I laugh and say I'm leaving 
And this is only dreaming 
So hold me while I'm screaming... 
Now...! Is the moment of truth... 
Your youth is a mask but it's not made to last 
For we all have a past to out run 
When the mask comes undone 
And we race on annd on 
Through the fiery portals of hell...! 

Go and tell all your friends 
That you've witnessed the end 

Of the World in a Dream... 

The night winds are howling... 
Seducing the trees, 
I wake in a cold sweat 
With the sheets round my knees 

I lay in the darkness 
With visionless eyes... 
Exhausted and reeling... 
All heartbeats and sighs... 

But the sleep still burns, 
Got a sleep that burns all night 

(sleep is coming, don't you worry)
