A Perfect Circle - Sleeping Beauty

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 (Sleeping)
Sign of your awakening
Failing miserably to (Beauty)
Find a way to comfort you
Far beyond a visible (Poisoned and)
Sign of your awakening
Hiding from some poisoned memory (Hopeless)

Poisoned and
Hopeless
Sleeping beauty
