In the waking hours
while we're six feet under
there is no horizon
no
no light shining through the casket
we can hear the birds though we're both deaf
rotting in our boxes
we have over slept
we have over slept
Though our lungs have collapsed
I can still feel you breathing
singing my name to me
as I sleep
I can still feel your hand in mine
flesh in all
and love combined
intertwined
I sat alone until you came and sat by me
I breathed shallow until you gave me a reason to live
I lived mellow until you made me happy
and I still love you
here today
So sleep
my angel
sleep
and dream the deepest dream
you were always so sweet to me
you're my devil with angel wings
sleep angel
sleep
The ring you gave me is still on my finger
I only lay now where your love lingers
so emotional
so lifeless
we're still side by side
for all time
