Pantera - The Sleep Lyrics






Understanding what has
Happened before us
We are confined to a
Darkened hidden tomb
The conquering of our world
As we knew it
Rise above this pit
Of sorrow and pain
Among the few
We are the avant leaders
We've got to live
Through this trouble and decay

This question haunts my mind
Will we survive this night?
We're harboring the meek
Will we survive the sleep?

Unsure and scared
We are planning our reprise
Revolves around this world
We don't know anymore
The odds against us
Yet we're stronger and prevailing
Learn from mistakes
Counting souls for sale

This question haunts my mind
Will we survive this night?
We're harboring the meek
Will we survive the sleep?

    Dimebag's guitar solo has more soul and passion in it then any of these fake new "musicians" these days.

  6. F.... M....

    The most underrated song in their catalog. Well, this and Throes Of Rejection.

    3:01 Dime really hurt that guitar with that lead. Did you guys hear how she cried? Beautiful sadness.

  8. L.... M....

    St Chesterfield had a rough life. He has too many asses to deal with. But that was his job.i respect anyone who has to deal with that many smelly assholes. No???

  18. D.... D....

    Pantera is heavy like Metallica

    D.... D....

    @iliabashel I probably like Pantera more than Metallica but you still can't talk shit about Metallica. Metallica s first five albums are masterpieces.

    D.... D....

    @Daniel Daniel TRUE

  19. J.... S....

    Pantera estilo único e inigualable brutal

  20. S.... R....

    Phil Anselmo is a racist motherf***er but the best singer ever.

    P.... F....

    I wish more people knew how to separate art and artist. Good for you.

  31. C.... K....

    Born to play the guitar

    Metal attained perfection in 1990, it's a scientific fact!

    Laura Hamilton Omg finally! I had to sort by new to find someone like me!!

  71. c.... v....

    that guitar solo. . Fucking doopppeee

  72. t.... l....

    That solo gives me goosebumps, fucking amazing

  73. K.... ....

    Everything about this song is MAGIC. Starting with the dancing riff to Phil’s vocals, to the SOLO at the end. The Solo is so GOLD, Dimebag makes the Guitar Cry for Help. It sounds like a cry for help with the short break in between. Simply awesome

  74. C.... T....

    5:47 to 8:42 tho

  75. S.... ....

    Whos is listenning in 2019

  76. K.... r....

    wow the start is like something from the 1st 2 Diablo games, awesome

  77. Z.... ....

    ANYONE who has ever loved Dime knows someone who has died by gun violence.

  78. R.... S....

    Lo mejor pantera

    Pantera ❤💔

  80. M.... A....

  82. Z.... ....

    Dime is one of my hero's. I feel blessed to have met him. & Vinnie as well. Rest in peace. We really miss you fuggerz. >: ...(

  83. D.... H....

    That fucking lead solo was absolutely so full of heart and soul, can't believe they're both gone. Vinnie died of a broken heart missing his brother! RIP Brothers.

  84. e.... f....

    Just came here to hear that solo before I go to sleep....

  85. A.... C....

    Such a heavy riff and amazing solo. Thanks Dime

  86. O.... G....

    Compliments

  87. N.... ....

    Teased me with the long video, I thought it’d be a longer version but still that dime solo 🙏🏽

  88. F.... a....

    Phil is a great lyricist. And that solo is pure poetry

  89. K.... ....

    It's hard not to listen to anything but, "The Art Of Shredding" after this song

  90. K.... g....

    Not crying eagle screaming

  91. V.... M....

    Ôh música linda ❤❤

  92. E.... G....

    I get very strong Diary of a Madman vibes from this song.

  93. A.... L....

    Why the fuck ad 2 minutes of silence at the end of your songs????
    fuck you!

  94. M.... F....

    They don't want us listening to music like this anymore its strong and beautiful and makes you think they want us all dumbed completely down.

  95. D.... J....

    Will we survive this night!🤘🤘#CFH#SouthernSlumerican333
