Sleeping Beauty

A Perfect Circle

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 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 you awakening 
And hiding from some poisoned memory
Poisoned and hopeless sleeping beauty
