Roughhousing in Rough Housing

lyrics

When my brothers bared their fangs at me, the intent of blood dripping from their teeth. I turned my back to greet their knives. Though they fooled themselves to be alive, they'll never breathe peace inside. I'll never find comfort in their eyes. There's nothing left in me. My sleep has become my home. The daylight welcomes the lions roam. Dearest Gravedigger take me deeper. Bury me deeper inside my dreams. Lay me down to rest in pieces. I was wrong to place my trust in you. Betrayal is only ankle deep, but I'm drowning in my sleep. The remnants of my mind have gone and left me far behind. While I still have open eyes I see the wolves, and their thirst can never be quenched. I feel the hinges of the body slowly become undone. No God, never let me die awake. Let me rest, but don't leave me to die alone. I've been asleep for far too long. Will someone please tell me I'm wrong? It was your hands that broke me. Now I need your hands to heal me. To wake me up.
