Don't Fall Asleep

Matthew woke beneath the pool

His laughter rising through the deepest blue

He saw his body torn in two

Placed a hand, but it sank straight through

Between the bones and binds

Each vein that contained little rivers of light

An angel took his side

And she knew his pain, held his heart in her eyes

And to Matthew she cried

"Don't fall asleep

You are precious to me

So stay awake and watch the flowers grow

Green and indigo

And leave some magic left to dream"

As his mind sank like a stone

Matthew traced a life he would've known

Saw his baby boy be born

And just for a moment, he could've sworn

The boy heard his song, as he sang

"Don't fall asleep

You are precious to me

So stay awake and watch the flowers grow

Green and indigo

And leave some magic left to dream"
