The Altar of Sleep

from Hæthenous by Bishop and Atheist

	/

lyrics

Make peace
At the altar of sleep
Every child
Every man, every beast
As I roam
Through the forest alone
I'll find myself
At the altar to feast

As I greet
At the altar of sleep
The man dressed in white
Beckons to me
As I drink
The liquor he streams
I fall and I drift
Towards the land of my dreams

As I leave
From the altar of sleep
A strange feeling
Engulfs me
As I run
Through the forest of home
I find myself
Wandering the unknown
