Dream Theater - 'Dead Asleep' (official audio)

In a waterside village
In the heat of July
A man and his wife
Settled down for the night
In the morning
He woke to a horrible sight

It's all just so tragic
An unusual case
The violent result
Of a fatal mistake
How can he be to blame?
He was never awake

Wake up
What have I done?
I was dead asleep
Wake up
Can you send someone?
I'm not insane
I was dead asleep

Scrambling in the darkness
In fear for his life
Certain a killer broke in
He fumbles for a weapon
Reaches for a knife
A sleepwalking murder begins

It was a vivid encounter
A realistic fight
And now he's got blood on his hands
He stands over the body
Sees it's his wife
A nightmare he can't understand

I must confess, it was me
I needed to silence the screams
She suffered a brutal attack
A shockingly violent act

Wake up
What have I done?
I was dead asleep
Wake up
Can you send someone?
I'm not insane
I was dead asleep

Out of my mind
Out of my body
Someone's been killed
I am sorry
Out of control
All out of answers
Maybe one day you'll forgive me

Wake up
What have I done?
I was dead asleep
I must have been dreaming
I have no memory of anything

We strongly suspect you're feeling a sense of despair
No one knows of the guilt that you bear
In the eyes of the law, you are free
You are innocent
