The Wise Man's Fear - Slumbering World Lyrics

Don't you close your eyes
They're watching you
Guard against the night
It beckons you
Break
Encircle the sun
They're baying for your blood
Don't you sink in the shadows
Missing pieces forming tapestries of a slumbering world
Oh it's the wayward souls
That lead us far from home
The things we need most are where we're scared to go
It's the wayward souls
That lead us far from home
The things we need most are where we're scared to go
Pain clings straight to your soul
Plunging you through years of cold
The burden on your shoulders tells
You've seen too much to forget now
It keeps you up, it weighs you down
Oh it's the wayward souls
That lead us far from home
The things we need most are where we're scared to go
It's the wayward souls
That lead us far from home
The things we need most are where we're scared to go
Through the years they were always listening
Through closed off windows and doors
Through the years they were always listening
Through closed off windows and doors
Don't look now
Everything you'll see is a looming cloud
Oh it's the wayward souls
That lead us far from home
The things we need most are where we're scared to go
It's the wayward souls
That lead us far from home
The things we need most are where we're scared to go
