Soilwork - As The Sleeper Awakes Lyrics
The decision is mine, will I remain the same
The cost of getting forced into something that used to be a game
The fragments of joy, the fragments of faith
I can still recall when I feel that...
I'm present, I just know
I would've been told
Counting hours, counting days
Will you listen, will you play
Is there anyone, who can get it done
Taking me back to the place that I once belonged
What if tomorrow was gently taken
Away from me, away from me...
Awaking the memories...
Was I meant to get old...
Start breaking the mold
[Chorus:]
And the faith, comes back to life
Still waiting for, a constant thing to react
But I will save myself some of the time
Keep aiming for, a constant thing to react
As the sleeper awakes
Mesmerized by the memories that walk by my side
Shelter comes easy
As soon as sadness sets in
By an impulse the search will begin
Searching, collecting all the things
I possess a Detecting, the insight I've earned in distress
Learning, finally I know how to breathe
Turning, turning away from the greed...
So unpleasant, it strikes whenever I call
So relentless, as I fall
A grand awakening, will kill it all
Nevertheless
I'll be my own precious god...
I can't resist, the things I've missed
And I'll make sure that it will last the time, I will insist
What if tomorrow, was taken away from me
Away from me, away from me
Awaking the memories...
Was I meant to get old...
Repressing the agonies...
Start breaking the mold
(Start breaking the mold)
[Chorus:]
And the faith, comes back to life
Still waiting for, a constant thing to react
But I will save myself some of the time
Keep aiming for, a constant thing to react
As the sleeper awakes

Soilwork As The Sleeper Awakes Comments
This song has one of the most beautiful chorus that I've ever heard in all metal, period.
Beyond music...
One of my all time favs from soilwork.
But I will save myself, some of the time....
Love that soaring chorus. And the gorgeous outro. Soilwork always does it right.
Swedish Metal FTW
Does it have anything to do with the book by H,Rider Haggard?
One of my favourite songs on this album!
who the fucking hell would dislke this?!
I just love aimlessly searching for new bands on youtube..
3:00 onward is fucking brilliant
If you are seeking a new and different explanation of the truth that makes sense, search for 'Truth Contest' in Google and click on the 1st result, then click on 'The Present' and read what it says. This is truth you can check. What it says will turn this world around if it reaches enough people. You will know what I mean when you read the first page.
Forward this to all your contacts; everyone needs to see it.
My favorite song by Soilwork, thanks for the upload!
Putamente buena esta cancion!!!!!!
I agree but I like the two after those quite a bit too cause the songs are just well written and are catchy as fuck
@EyesofNeurosis wtf are you talking about?
@DLozinski25 besides everything before it.
Im sorry, are you one of the children that started with killswitch (not)engage?
nothing beats stabbing the drama (album)
cool song but you have the lyrics wrong
"If there's anything I should regret" is wrong its "If there's anything to regret"
"What if tomorrow, was taken away from me" is also wrong it is infact "What if tomorrow, was simply taken away from me", i dont know but there may be more wrong there, you should check thouroghly
"If there's anything I should regret" is wrong its "If there's anything to regret"
My favorite soilwork song :D
@masterfenixxx if you like soilwork, check out disarmonia mundi
Bjorn "Speed" Strid= Pure Epicness!!!
Ive raped the refresh button.
i want to suck this song
my fucking god, i don't know what it is but every single song this band cranks out has so much emotion you can feel it. even with crappy guitar and drum production you can still tell how much emotion was put into this and all of their previous albums. it's amazing..........
keep waiting for... the guns of the patriots!! lol (I know they don't say this but when I heard this I was playing metal gear solid 4)
This song has the best chorus I've ever heard.
makes another Gin & Tonic whilst listening!!!!!!! >=]
He sits alone in his bedroom. Soilwork's "As the Sleeper Awakens" plays in the background. After a few moments he leaps from his bed as the lyrics sound:
"When the faaaaaaaith, comes back to liiiiiiiiiife
Still waiting for....a constant thing to react
"BUT I WILL saaaaaave myself some of the time
Keep aiming for...a constant thing to react!"
"AWAY FROM MEEE AWAY FROM MEEEE!"
Its as if my ears have been ripped off of my head and placed into heaven. There are so many emotions when listening to every instrument, beat, scream...I love Soilwork.
i love this song and everything about it, this song is just amazing
Best song on the album, along with "Light discovering Darkness" IMO.
