The Sleeping Beauty

In Babylonian mythology, Tiamat is a chaos monster, a primordial goddess of the ocean, mating with Abzû (the god of fresh water) to produce younger gods. It is suggested that there are two parts to the Tiamat mythos, the first in which Tiamat is 'creatrix', through a "Sacred marriage" between salt and fresh water, peacefully creating the cosmos through successive generations.

Alone I sit, I wonder why 
You dream of love and so do I 
But in your sleep you cannot see 
This pain which is always haunting me 
What I need I'll never feel 
This world is for me unreal 
So I drink to darkness with a candle lit 
And through the whole night alone I sit 

The sleeping beauty 
She stops the bleeding 
She stops the bleeding in my soul 
She is fresh air in this stinking world 

The more I drink, the more I see 
That suicide could be the key 
To the place called paradise 
Where pain not dwells, not hate nor lies 
But if I look beyond all this 
I reckon something I would surely miss 
Because in my dreams I rule my life 
And the sleeping beauty is my wife 

The sleeping beauty 
She stops the bleeding 
She stops the bleeding in my dreams 
She is fresh air in this stinking world
