A Perfect Circle - Sleeping Beauty lyrics

Delusional

I believed I could cure it all

For you dear

Coax or trick or drive or

Drag the demons from you

Make it right for you sleeping beauty truly thought

I could *magically* heal you

Far beyond a visible

Sign of your awakening

Failing miserably to rescue

Sleeping... beauty...

Drunk on ego

Truly thought I could make it right if I

Kissed you one more time to

Help you face the nightmare but you're

Far too poisoned for me

Such a fool to think that I could wake you from your slumber

That I could actually heal you

Sleeping... beauty...

Poisoned... and hopeless...

Far beyond a visible

Sign of your awakening

Failing miserably to

Find a way to comfort you

Far beyond a visible

Sign of your awakening

And hiding from some poisoned memory...

Poisoned... and hopeless...

Sleeping... beauty.
