This heart of mine, unseen for ages
Grows black in time, and falls to the Earth
Violent dreams tormenting me, paint a darkened scene
Your master plan, the task at hand is to take my life away again
I brace myself for you, and the hell you've put me through
I'd like to feel the air, I'd like to breathe again one final time
So now you're blind and can't see, a sudden sadness grips me
These complications impede my ability to breathe
What have you done to me?
I see no wound yet still I'm bleeding
Why is this happening?
I'd like to know why I'm not breathing anymore
I've heard it all before, and I tire of the lie
Tire of the lie
Just let me breathe
Let me breathe
This heart of mine, begins its healing
Must find a way to regain the feeling
There's nothing you can say or do
That will nullify the damage done by you
I take comfort in knowing that you are gone for good
Yet I feel your eyes watching from afar
If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way. Scott Malthouse
I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here. David Fischer
