The Sleep Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Balljack70 

Cover art for The Sleep lyrics by Pantera

I think you are getting a little too deep southofheavan. The song is nothing more than gibberish in the mold of Judas Priest and many bands before and after. It is merely a song about rising to the top of the metal game and leaving others behind. Don't get me wrong this is my favorite Pantera song of all time but if you look at Cowboys vs later albums you will see how far their song writing has come, with some exceptions of course. This song though contains arguabaly dimes best solo of any pantera song, and the album as a whole I feel is his best work of any major pantera release.
