Somewhere Between Waking and Sleeping

Leaning over the side, trailing my fingertips
Inside prison walls, I can find release
Feeling the water slip into the quiet night
Viewed from the wrong end of a telescope
The thread unravels the merciful release
I see myself so far below
Now I can almost see figures upon the shore
Somewhere between waking and sleeping
Down at the water�s edge, somebody waits for me
There is a place that I have seen
(People gather by the river, they were talking)
(Without blindness, there is failure)
There is a place that I have seen
Without blindness, there is no sight

Somewhere between waking and sleeping
There is a place that I have seen
Still and silent, rest in peace
Somewhere between waking and sleeping

You'd see further if you'd close your eyes
Unblock the failure
Is it too late for me? It's never too late, he says

In unconsciousness, I can find peace
