Past The Sleep Lyrics - Ordinary Riches - Company Of Thieves

Across the ocean, under the sand 

That got in your wounds 

Across the ocean, under the land 

That you now consume 

There sleeps a demon 

It wakes at night by the light of the moon 

And it's watchin' while you sleep 

While you sit and dream 

At all the people laughing, pickin' up the shells 

Too concerned with suntans, nobody can tell 

They end up empty, wanting, wondering 

Hollow like the shells 

On seashores from sailors and tales they'll never 

Tell to their maidens and babies 

Tales that they'll never tell 

Across the ocean, under the water 

That got in your lungs 

There sleeps a demon 

It knows exactly what you will become 

And it's watchin' while you sleep 

While you sit and dream 

At all the people laughing, pickin' up the shells 

Too concerned with suntans, nobody can tell 

They end up empty, wanting, wondering 

Hollow like the shells 

On seashores from sailors and tales they'll never 

Tell to their maidens and babies 

Tales that they'll never tell 

While you're dreaming, past the sleep 

Leave behind the things you keep 

While you're dreaming, past the sleep 

Leave behind the things you keep 

They end up empty, wanting, wondering 

Hollow like the shells 

On seashores from sailors and tales they'll never 

Tell to their maidens and babies 

Tales that they'll never tell 

They'll never tell to thier maidens and babies 

Tales that they'll never tell 

They end up empty, wanting, wondering 

Hollow like the shells
