"Asleep is a plea to the player--part from Frisk's point of view, part from other characters'--not to play the game cruelly."

lyrics

And I say, "Cruelty
is not the only option I can see"
And I say, "Follow me...
or aren’t you tired of waiting in the deep?"

So don’t let me be
A turn-tail travesty
But don’t let me be
Impaled, carelessly
Asleep.

And I say, "Cruelty...
Well, it’s not the only option I can see"
And I say, "Between you and me,
it’s okay if they beat us to the punch!
You’re not afraid of very much!
And even if it’s just a hunch,
I think we’ll be alright"

So don’t let me be
A switchblade prophesy
But don’t let me be
Child’s play
To a childless king
...
Asleep.

And I say, "Cruelty
doesn’t really matter... You don’t mean a thing to me."
And I say, "Follow me...
Or aren’t you tired of sitting, tired of rotting in the deep?"

So, don’t let me... be

Kid, I think it’s time to drop the knife
Unless you’re looking for a fight
Or one hell of a bad time
You know... It’s not alright
You know, we’re not alright

So, don’t let me be
Don’t let me be
Don’t make me be
...
Not me.

(Asleep.)
