Sharpening The Axe... Songtext
You lie awake in your bed and she said...
(She said - you're dead)
"I lie awake and I know I'm alone"
(I said, I said)
Away from time and away from this place she said...
(she said - you're dead)
A bitter soul that is weeping to grow
(she said - she said)
Sharpen the axe
Bringing me down
Neck to the block
Losing my crown
Sharpen the axe
Lay your stone on the blade
Breaking the soul
Execution day
You lie awake and I know that you said she's dead...
(I said, she's dead)
You felt the heart and it's breaking apart
(she said, she said)
You're all alone and she's taking her time she said...
(she said, I'm dead)
You're all alone and you're losing your time...
(she said, she said)
Sharpen the axe
Bringing me down
Head on the block
Losing my crown
Once I was king
Now I'm losing my soul
...with one single swing
I lost all control
You lie awake in your bed and you're dead
(she said, she said)
You awake and you're breaking your neck and she said...
(she said, she said)
Another soul that is out of control she said...
(she said, you're dead)
And now you're down as you lay on the fire
(she said, she said)
You're dead...
You're dead...
(She said - you're dead)
"I lie awake and I know I'm alone"
(I said, I said)
Away from time and away from this place she said...
(she said - you're dead)
A bitter soul that is weeping to grow
(she said - she said)
Sharpen the axe
Bringing me down
Neck to the block
Losing my crown
Sharpen the axe
Lay your stone on the blade
Breaking the soul
Execution day
You lie awake and I know that you said she's dead...
(I said, she's dead)
You felt the heart and it's breaking apart
(she said, she said)
You're all alone and she's taking her time she said...
(she said, I'm dead)
You're all alone and you're losing your time...
(she said, she said)
Sharpen the axe
Bringing me down
Head on the block
Losing my crown
Once I was king
Now I'm losing my soul
...with one single swing
I lost all control
You lie awake in your bed and you're dead
(she said, she said)
You awake and you're breaking your neck and she said...
(she said, she said)
Another soul that is out of control she said...
(she said, you're dead)
And now you're down as you lay on the fire
(she said, she said)
You're dead...
You're dead...
