Sleepless Empire

Eterna insomnia
In inferis cruciatus

We're dreaming with open eyes
In a state of disarray
We are like kings locked in a cage
Waiting for salvation that will never come
There is no forever, we will be replaced

Suspended without motion
A syndrome of sedation
Lost in a sleepless empire
It's the infinite cycle
Where past and future are aligned
In a sleepless empire

We're caught up in the rapture
Seduced by short term gains
We only praise false gods
We lack common sense and just live for the day
There is no forever, we are not afraid

Suspended without motion
A syndrome of sedation
Lost in a sleepless empire
It's the infinite cycle
Where past and future are aligned
In a sleepless empire

Are we algorithms or just an obsolete creation
Enslaved in a world that is eroding?
Living in denial
We're locked in with the same old pattern
An easy code to be remembered

Perpetua insomnia
Tormento man mano
This is a sleepless empire

Suspended without motion
A syndrome of sedation
Lost in a sleepless empire
It's the infinite cycle
Where past and future are aligned
In a sleepless empire

Aeterna insania
Ignifer cruciatus (neurotic empire)
Aeterna insania
Ignifer cruciatus
Perpetua insomnia
Ignifer cruciatus (we're tossing the dice)
Perpetua insomnia
Tormentum humanum (to rule the sleepless empire)
