seen things lately i can't get off my mind they frustrate me and keep me up at night oh lord, does your watchful eye see the news-every night via satellite on TV while my god was sleeping pain was on the rise when my heart stopped beating god was far and sleeping a lot like torture as pleasant as it seems a wheel of fortune with sandy beaches and bad, bad dreams hey man, what's with your eyes what do you see-from up so high are you hypnotized or just lazy while my god was sleeping pain was on the rise the blade that cuts so deeply made me realize while my god was sleeping sleeping like a child who never said his vespers he's sleeping now forever i stopped to watch my life to watch it passing by"¦ i love you god, i pay the price i want to make this sacrifice forever while my god was sleeping strangers lost their lives when their hearts stopped beating god was far and sleeping while my god was sleeping sleeping like a child who never said his vespers he's sleeping now forever
