He came to me inside a dream, it was the shade of myself I had seen When I walked through the temple of love, I felt like a stranger inside A loner was pointing the way, choosing which road I must take I gazed the old man in the eyes and his presence made me realize It was the reaper who'd come for me. Like a prisoner caught in a dream I was Painting the temple of love, with bloodstains from the white feathered dove And When the storm arrived I knew the end was near And when the second came, my fate began to clear What is the meaning? When I'm awake I'm dreaming Dead or Asleep; Between the devil and the deep I followed the road I had found and to the ocean of death I arrived Where thousands of millions had drowned, forever in darkness enbound The reaper now stood on the shore, pointing the new way to go Inside the ocean of death you will find, your true self in the waves of our kind And then I saw his face, deep down in the sea And when the gazed at me, and tried to pull me in What is the meaning? When I'm awake I'm dreaming Dead or Asleep; Between the devil and the deep In the middle, Between the Devil and the Deep Can you see me, Between the Devil and the Deep In the middle, Between the Devil and the Deep Can you see me, Between the Devil and the Deep I followed the road I had found and to the ocean of death I arrived He came to me inside a dream, it was the shade of myself I had seen
