[Instrumental]
Sleep sweet and deep close my eyes with a smile
Sleep come over me let me rest and dream awhile
I want to dream of two young lovers holding hands
The dreams that I used to dream way back when
All the things that could and should've been before the eternal sadness set in
Sleep sweet and deep let me rest and dream awhile
[ steel ]
Let me dream of the sunlight shining in her hair of the days with laughter in the air
Take me back to my world of happiness again before the eternal sadness set in
Sleep sweet and deep visit me for awhile
Sleep come over me let me rest and dream awhile
Of two young lovers making plans of dreams I dreamed when dreams began
Of things that could and should have been before the eternal sadness moved in
Sleep take over me set me free to dream awhile
Of sunlight shining in her hair of days with laughter in the air
Of my world of sweetness again before the eternal sadness moved in
Sleep sweet and deep let me rest and dream awhile let me rest and dream awhile
[2Pac:]
Quit starin' at me like a infa red nigga
Don't fall to sleep
You can get ya cash on nigga if ya peep
Other niggaz close they eyes
Seein' dreams in they sleep
But don't fall asleep
Don't fall to sleep
You can get ya cash on
Pictures of penny
Sippin' my glass full of henny
Hands on my semi-
Automatic kill for pennies
Approach for contact
Cause I'm live I multiply
Soon as I open fire
Niggaz die wit' open eyes
Scare to take a nap
It's a trap a long maze
Dreamin' of gettin' stacks
Makin' scratch the wrong way
What the song say
We murder motherfuckers daily
Black out blow the crack out
My lyrics neva fail me
I inhale strong weed then release the stress
Deliver the bomb shit from the east to west
Like yay-yo
Niggaz pull out when I say so
Commence to poppin' motherfuckers copy it fatal
'fficiently I delete then flee
The art of war
Livin' sucka free
Get wit' me
Motherfucker don't sleep
[Chorus x2: 2Pac]
Don't go to sleep
You can get ya cash on nigga if ya peep
Other niggaz close they eyes
Seein' dreams in they sleep
But don't fall asleep
[Young Buck:]
I'm starin' thru my rear view
Doin' 'bout 90
The petal to the metal
So I can see what's behind me
Buckle up your seat belt eyes on the road
They know we ridin' dirty gotta play it how it go
They close down the projects the clubs been closed
And then they wonder why niggaz breakin down o's
I'm a run away slave
Ya get it nigga off the chain
I got that thug life shit runnin' thru my viens
And now they scare
They know that I been heaven sent
And yeah we know the dope comin' from the president
But look at us
We ain't got shit to lose
Feel like we ballin' if we got a new pair of tennis shoes
In the ghetto or better yet home sweet home
This is the land of the free
But to me that's wrong
I'm on my way to the white house strapped wit' my heat
So don't fall asleep
Come on niggaz
[Chorus x2]
[Chamillionaire:]
They say that the moe they hate ya the moe that it motivate ya
My mind set on grind my mental set on the paper
62 hours and countin' and I'm still awake
And they slippin' me sleepin' pills wit' the will I break
Broke nigga always tellin' ya how to make ya cash adjust
So I just stop listenin' and now my cash is up
Red dotted the media cause they always mad at us
I don't see 'em tryin' to mediate when we get gats and bust
They just instigate and as soon as the get the tape
It's dropped from my nigga life just as soon as they get the case
Personally I ain't trippin' on all this rappin' stuff
I'm takin' back my money counter cause it wasn't fast enough, yep
I got a couple problems (word) and none of 'em is money
Just those that love me to pretend to love me and say they buddies
Sometimes I want to maneuver with the ruger
To live like Freddie Krueger these nightmares just ain't as buddy
In meetings they always askin' what my passion is
(And the) money talks so I always have words to answer this (yep)
I can't relax cause its like I'm a fetti activist
Might see me on tv never a mat-tress
[Chorus]
Don't go to sleep
[Chorus]
Sleep banger
[Chorus x2]
ScareCrow]
Please stay sleep, please stay sleep
please stay sleep, you niggas stay sleep
Sippin on six murder minutes, the sauce I give blood
from the cup to the coffin lid grill
of a place they call heaven now skids or broke hell
Silence for singin some many six songs
Christian or rune, my Lithonia despite ghetto
Sinister sins I decided distract on a ancient crucial
suspension suspect a sent or no souls
past like Krueger's is gross
Satanic in scent were wrote on the scent
it's so sacred created by Lucifer slaves
Silent, secluded in secret somewhere in the swamp
in the land of protest a man-day
Infinite six, eternal the six
forever the six I sits outta da flames
Sick minded soldiers wit suffering
singing and searching to stable severe for some pain
crossed over the thorn on my venomous tips
Such in the same antisocial by there is no sun
Scarecrow was me, I was sent from the ceiling
daily as the right wipe on my lips
Indulge yourself with the posters
I tell you how is your profit
and noisy money and drugs interior golds
demand if it gets the whole world da new dinners and clothes
[Gangsta Boo]
I click so quick, my spells are slick
I'm comin' again with much more
Its fucking yo bitch but Nig-ga- roes
You niggas be jealous 'cause my profit sellin'
'cause you run yo mouth around the wrong misses bitch
Just listen, I shouldn' have to mention
Yo ass is in the click, you fell in the click
Yo peep this, my niggas be packin' artillery making yo ass whine
I'm packin' this bomb ass car that's robbin yo ass blind all the time
You think I love you, never nigga I'm out to get my cheese
Like Roger Rabbit, who framed the nigga that guy left on his knees?
Smokin' out, 'cause I need to get high before I go on my mission
My profit soldiers call me all about this thing called pimpin'
So listen nigga before you think you got a convict (bitch)
You got a steaming matter lil' boy that want the lifestyle of rich
Sleep baby sleep
[Hook:]
Princes is all I dream
Beware of this cloud, 'cause it is just too deep
Sleep baby sleep
[DJ Paul]
We pimpin up on these hoes wit the Mack-10
The Mack-12 hit 'em wit the Mack-11
Catch ya slippin at the 7-11
Put the swords in the back of his cap, send him straight to heaven 7
Lily villains? couldn't stop these hits
certainly when ya fuck around wit da Three Six Mafia on top a ya
Game, really gotta wake 'em up wit the piggy bank
Really tho, sissy hoe, we up in ya house
Get 'em up wit galled off
Boo under da bed, Crunchy behind da couch
Wit da mother fucking shit we talkin' about
Thug'd out, drugged out, already
Get 'em in they mother fucking sleep like Freddy
Split it, doin' it, them mutha fuckin niggas doin' it
Pourin' it, the mutha fuckin Posse bitch
While you thinking we slackin' up, we jackin' up yo fuckin shit
Enemies from day one, but today sons, don't last, so ball it
Where ya run at? Da Three Six gun that, all bitches about the cheap
[Crunchy Black]
Hangin low and standin' hi, stayin' hi, on the mutha fuckin street
Should I let a nigga live?
Should I let a nigga die?
I should watch a nigga cry
As da tears hit the floor
Dealin' shit, how not a roar?
While I sing dem lullaby
Crunchy Black is not a whore
And Raven Red and heavens door
You be beggin' for some Christ
As I soar through yo life
Aint no mutha fuckin' Christ
All I wanna see is die
[Juicy J]
Yo sleep at night, we coming through yo mutha fuckin' window pane
Make sure at night, you shut it tight so the killer wont split ya brain
Nuttin but them two like a glock boy a sick infrared between ya eyes
Don't make a move in ya room you better believe it's a big surprise
rest of the body wrap it up wit a belt
Tie that bitch up wit the gray tape,
Please stay sleep!
Chop, chop, chop, cut the dead body up till ya know theres nothing left
It is safe to sleep alone
In a place no one knows
And to seek life under stones
In a place water flows.
It is best to find in sleep
The missing pieces that you lost
Best that you refuse to weep
Ash to ash, dust to dust.
It is strange to sleep alone
In a place no one knows
Strange to shelter under stones
In a place water flows.
It is safe to walk with me
Where you can read the sky and stars,
Safe to walk upon the sea
In my sleep we can go far.
It is safe to sleep alone
In a place no one knows
And to shelter under stones
In a place water flows.
It is strange to sleep alone
In a place no one goes,
Strange to seek life under stones.
I can't describe the feeling when
I'm in my bed asleep and then
I wake up with a vision blurred
And all my efforts are deterred
To reconstruct this image lost
There're certain things my mind must do
And even though they're very few
The image glistens like a gem
Repairing is not one of them
So I'm awake though in my mind
The image thats so unrefined
Is calling to me from the deep
From the album sutras
Sleep now sleep
And so fade sorrow
Sleep beloved sleep
Sleep now sleep
Afar tomorrow
Sleep beloved sleep
You are home this night
Home of winter
Your home of autumn
Summer and spring
You are home this night
Lasting home
Eternal home
Your eternal home
Sleep of seven lights upon you
Sleep of seven joys
Sleep of seven slumbers on you
In your easy poise
You are home this night
Home of stillness
Your home of spirit
Being and bliss
You are home this night
Abiding home
Forever home
After your laughter like thunder
After your skin like coffee and cream
After it takes our bodies into the night
After we've come to the extreme
I want to lay down on your shoulder
Just inside your arm
I want to listen to your heart beat
And your breathing on and on
I want to lay down on your shoulder
Surrender to your peace
And go to sleep
And when we've gone a million miles
Made true our dreams with sweat and bone
After we've built it up with our bare hands
Made strong a place we can call home
And when the light in my eye is fading
When running water becomes too deep
Finally angels turn my fire to dust
And when my soul's no longer mine to keep
I want to lay down on your shoulder
Just inside your arm
I want to listen to your heartbeat
And your breathing on and on
I want to lay down on your shoulder
Surrender to the peace
Don't say you can't
Just do what I would do for you
You watch my back
And i'll be there to cover you
Do as I say
And never question what I do
Two feet away
There's trouble closing in on you
Close my heavy eyes now
Give me sleep
I travel troubled oceans

My lover, my angel
Each time you layed with me
Falling from your lips
With each kiss
You're betraying me
Don't tell me you made me
You played me for a fool
Lies come tumbling down now
Like a waterfall
Over me
Like a heaven without the stars, yeah
I don't know why you broke my heart
(chorus)
Just send me to sleep
I just wanna dream
Don't wanna believe
This is happening to me
Just send me to sleep
For eternity
Yeah
'Cause I don't wanna be here alone
So silent, so sweetly
You played your game with me
Slowly suffocating
Love was fading
I couldn't breathe
Beloved
Unfaithfull
No words are left to speak
Crossed unholy water
You can't alter
Your fate, yeah
Summer kisses fade away, yeah
I'm left standing in the rain
(chorus)
(chorus x 2)
Hey there you, way out there in the distance
Can you hear me? Are you there?
I know it's late, so please forgive my persistence
But I'm hanging, do you care?
So lay back, call off the attack
'Cause if you look deep, dreams are nothing that I lack
And all I seek, a final chance to speak
And I would let the whole thing keep
If I could just sleep, if I could sleep
Hey there you, way out there
Could you show me just a signal or a sign?
That after all, all these years that you've known me
And I'm not just wasting time
So lay back, call off the attack
'Cause if you look deep, dreams are nothing that I lack
And all I seek, a final chance to speak
And I would let the whole thing keep
If I could just sleep, if I could sleep
And as I lay there late at night
Building castles in the air
Out of alibis and all those little lies
And then I look inside and pray that I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
[Verse 1: Aaron Livingston]
Like when autumn leaves fall
Down from the trees
There goes, my honey bee
I've lost a lot of sleep to dreams
And I do not miss them yet
I wouldn't wish them on than worst of enemies
Let them burn, go from here
Like when autumn leaves
[Verse 2: Black Thought]
To catch a thief
Who stole the soul I prayed to keep
Insomniac
Bad dreams/Got me losing
Sleep
I'm dead tired
My mind playing tricks
Deceit
A face in the glass /Unable to admit defeat
All that I am all that I was is history
The past unraveled adding insult to this injury
I'm fighting the battle for the soul of the century
Destiny is everything that I pretend to be
Look, and what I did came back to me eventually
The music played on and...
Told me I was meant to be awake
It's unresolved
Like everything I had at stake
Illegal activity controls
My black symphony
Orchestrated like it happened
Incidentally
Oh... there I go
From a man to memory
Damn
I wonder if my fam will remember me
[Verse 3: Aaron Livingston]
I've lost a lot of sleep to dreams
And I do not miss them yet
I wouldn't wish them on the worst of enemies
Let them burn, go from here
So you got the blues
The evening wore out your shoes
To a shufflin' beat
It's a colorful crowd
Spraycan information
Cover the lonely station
A checkpoint for the state of the nation
So you got the blues
And we sleep in hope
The evening wore out your shoes
On the mission-beat beat
The radio drug
Wayward destination
Secondhand sensation
Take this heart
Break this heart
Wrap it up
So you got the blues
And it's gettin' later and later
The evening wore out your shoes
If you're in without the sail
Now back of the cell
The plug and the cord
Shoulder dislocation
They're bruised in isolation
Take this heart
Break this heart
And give me some
In the eye of the storm
We were counting on walls
Cross my heart confusion
We're all looking for a new solution
Say it's the heat of the land, now
Swallowin' sweat how
Say those dreams can shake me
God come down and save me
Take this heart
Break this heart
And give me some sleep
So you got the blues
The evening wore out your shoes
So you got the blues
The evening wore out your shoes
Sleep now sleep
And so fade sorrow
Sleep beloved sleep
Sleep now sleep
Afar tomorrow
Sleep beloved sleep
You are home this night
Home of winter
Your home of autumn
Summer and spring
You are home this night
Lasting home
Eternal home
Your eternal home
Sleep of seven lights upon you
Sleep of seven joys
Sleep of seven slumbers on you
In your easy poise
You are home this night
Home of stillness
Your home of spirit
Being and bliss
You are home this night
Abiding home
Forever home
Hi it's, me i'm bored again, all is well i'm not insane
I've been drunk for seven days, everything is fine
I made some friends, broke the ice, then i some ate bread and cheese
to gain some weight, keep me warm everything's o.k.
It's me delivering psychosis, over the phone to you
I color your world blue, ten thousand miles from you
I'm sinking all alone, treading new waters, I miss my buoy
The van smells like a dirty sock, everyone has got the flu
I'd rather be sick of you, I'd rather be asleep
When I get home, the band will have, it's first hit song
you and I, will buy some rings, and a suburban home
I'll bring home, the bacon bits, we'll make our parents grandparents
Words and music by George Biondo
Please don't talk no more
It's just that I'm half asleep
And not a sudden case of nasty manner
You've been here all night
Just waiting for the final line
to make this more than a warm encounter
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I need some time to rest my weary head
With all your worry about the things I need
Why don't you let me
Why don't you let me
Why don't you let me sleep
Please turn out the light
I don't care if you stay or go
Just as long as I can get some shut eye
And if I don't reply to all your mumbling in the dark
It's your fault that I'm too tired to answer
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I need some time to rest my weary head
And if there's one more night like one of these
Then you better let me, you better let me
You better let me sleep
1976 Missing Link Music, Inc.
The enemy is after me again
Afraid of the sea and what's down there
I need to sleep
It's been a whole week
'Cause tears keep falling into my pool
Bright lights driving right into me cold
I need to sleep
It's been a whole week
'Cause tears keep falling into my pool
Bright lights driving right into me cold
My bones keep breaking
Tearing me away from the quiet
The silence of my soul, of my soul from the quiet
Night time, grueling, just time to waste
Heights they kill me, leave scarring on my face
'Cause I never, ever, ever fall into sleep
And I've never, ever, ever felt so weak
'Cause tears keep falling into my pool
Bright lights driving right into me cold
My bones keep breaking
Tearing me away from the quiet
The silence of my soul, of my soul from the quiet
I wanna fall down
I wanna fall down
I wanna fall down
Hey there you
Way out there in the distance
Can you hear me
Are you there
I know it's late
So please forgive my persistence
But I'm hanging
Do you care
So lay back
Call off the attack
Cause if you look deep
Dreams are nothing that I lack
And all I seek
A final chance to speak
And I would let the whole thing keep
If I could just sleep
Hey there you
Way out there could you show me
Just a signal
Or a sign
That after all
All these years that you've known me
And I'm not just killing time
So lay back
Call off the attack
Cause if you look deep
Dreams are nothing that I lack
And all I seek
A final chance to speak
But I would let the whole thing keep
If I could just sleep
As I lay there late at night
Building castles in the air
Out of alibis and all those little lies
And then I look inside
And pray that I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
I had a dream last night
Woke up and I was still asleep
I felt the bed bugs bite
You thought that I was counting sheep
But I was wide awake, was wide awake all night
Was wide awake, was wide awake, was wide awake all night
Can't sleep with the door closed
No, I'm not scared of the Boogie Man
Just a dream I suppose
You thought that I was counting sheep
But I was wide awake, was wide awake all night
Was wide awake, was wide awake, was wide awake all night
If I happen to wake up
I won't go there again
I will never close my eyes
This time I've had enough
Hoping this is the end
I still like lullabuyz
I always did fall down
But never hit the ground
I wake up just in time
I try to run away I'm waiting for the day
That I can ease my mind
I try to raise my voice
But I can't make a choice
I just can't make a sound
Sat up in a cold sweat
My sheets are soaking wet
I think I'm gonna drown
But I'm awake, but I'm awake, awake all night
If I happen to wake up
I won't go there again
I won't ever close my eyes
This time I've had enough
Hoping this is the end
I still like lullabuyz
I always did fall down
But never hit the ground
I wake up just in time
I try to run away
I'm waiting for the day
That I can ease my mind
But I'm awake, but I'm awake, awake all night
Sleep lyrics
(feat. Paul Buchanan)
Shar -
I think that you're the one
When everytime you call me lady
I don't know what it is
That makes me feel like this just lately yeah
Bridge (both)
Those heavenly calls
You knew I was on my own
Those heavenly calls
We stepped into the unknown
Chorus (Paul)
Let me sleep
So I can dream of you
Let me sleep
So I can be with you
Shar -
What's a girl to do when she's alone
With you just tell me
And here we are again yeah acting
Like we're friends don't held me
Bridge (both)
Chorus (Paul)
Chorus (both)
Shar -
Hold me close, let me be with you
Paul â-
At least tonight, we'll be misunderstood
Chorus (both) 2x
Let me sleep
Oh let me sleep
Let me sleep so I can dream of you
Let me sleep so I can be with you
Let me sleep so I can dream of you
Let me sleep so I can be with you
Let me sleep (5x)
Let me sleep so I can be with you
Sleep. Come on in.
I would like for you to spend the night with me.
Sleep. Where you been.
I have surely missed you since you've been gone.
I have walked the dirt and seen the clouds in the sky and
seen them different in the daytime.
It hurts my eyes to close them cause they only close to blink away the tears that I cry.
Sleep. Be my friend.
I could use a close one to remind me how to live again.
Sleep. Make it end.
Let me rest and lie beside my tired old bones and hold me.
Sing to me a lullaby on hopes of shutting down these eyes and close out the world.
Force me to dream so I'll know I've slept and shelter me from daylights creeping fingers.
Sleep. Please appear.
Show to me your face and tell me it's ok to rest.
Sleep. Help me try,
To put my body down on pillows made out of my Mama's womb.
Satisfy my eagerness for comfort in this time of worry let me let it go.
When I'm sure the lights are out and sandman throws himself about
I'll trust you again.
Sleep. Say my prayers.
Asking for a place that looks like all the nighttime fantasies.
Sleep. Are you here?
Are you real and am I snuggling down tonight?
In the middle of the night
Head on my pillow
Looking like a little ghost
Seems like all of the things
That you gave your mother
Have all gone up in smoke
In the middle of the night
You don't know what I'm thinking
But still the stars still sparkle and shine
Seems like all of the time
Our boat was slowly sinking
You didn't even seem to mind
Now all I want to do is sleep
Now all I want to do is sleep
And sleep I think to myself
For all of us, for all of us
Beating fiercely against the wind
Or lying there with broken hands
Wondrous wings and blinded eyes
That see even beyond seeing
The same heart crushing sorrow
The same unspeakable loveliness
All at the same time
How beautiful and sad
And peace I think to myself
For all of us, for all of us
Each and everyone alone
Reaching out form endless dreams
With open hearts and fragile souls
Like children always seeking home
Where love is as easy as breathing
And breath is as light as the atmosphere
All at the same time
How frightening and sweet it is
The same heart crushing sorrow
The same unspeakable loveliness
All at the same time
How beautiful and sad it is
And sleep I think to myself
For all of us, for all of us
Sleep I think at last
It seems I spend my days now wrapped in veils of sleep.
Caught in slumber's grasp, nowhere that I should be.
I grew so goddamned tired of fighting against these chains.
No signs of relief or payment for my pains.
I know that I must try to break out of this cell I call my life.
To go to sleep is just to hide away.
I close my eyes so I won't see the things I'd have to try to get.
I haven't tried I've only turned away.
In my sleeping world I thought that I was safe.
Free from all the pain and burning light of day.
But even in my sleep now life is less than kind.
No escaping from this madness in my mind.
{They?re these terrors, and it?s like
It feels like as if somebody was gripping my
They?re theses terrors and it?s like
It feels like as if somebody was gripping my throat}
{Like last night, uh, they?re not like tremors
They?re worse than tremors they?re, they?re theses terrors
Like last night, uh, they?re not like tremors
They?re worse than tremors they?re, they?re theses terrors}
{And it?s like
It feels like as if somebody was gripping my throat
And squeezing and
And it feels like as if somebody was gripping my throat}
Some say now suffer all the children and walk away a savior
Or a madman and polluted from gutter institutions
Don't you breathe for me undeserving of your sympathy
?Cause there ain't no way that I'm sorry for what I did
And through it all, how could you cry for me?
?Cause I don't feel bad about it
So shut your eyes, kiss me goodbye
And sleep, just sleep
The hardest part is letting go of your dreams
A drink for the horror that I'm in
For the good guys and the bad guys
For the monsters that I've been
Three cheers for tyranny, unapologetic apathy
?Cause there ain't no way that I'm coming back again
And through it all, how could you cry for me?
?Cause I don't feel bad about it
So shut your eyes, kiss me goodbye
And sleep, just sleep
The hardest part?s the awful things that I've seen
{Sometimes I see flames
And sometimes I see people that I love dying
And it?s always
Sometimes I see flames
And sometimes I see people that I love dying
And it?s always}
Just sleep, just sleep
Just sleep, just sleep
Just sleep, just sleep
Wake up!
Wake up!
Wake up!
Step in my shoes, wait 'till you see the big flash now
Glued to the sheets, sleep with the sheep all month long
Easy to please, hard to believe it's a tease
Stuck in a rut, don't give a fuck if we're us
Lie in a haze, hope it's a phase and not hate
You know that I know that you know that I know that you know
I want you to kiss me
I want you to kiss me
I try to open my eyes to the days going by
But the trash in everything it keeps me hypnotized
I'm hypnotized
I got the poison in me but it's amplified
Amplified
Step in my shoes, wait 'till you see the big flash now
Lie in a haze, hope it's a phase and not hate
Easy to please, hard to believe it's a tease
You know that I know that you know that I know that you know
I want you to kiss me
I want you to kiss me
I try to open my eyes to the days going by
But the trash in everything it keeps me hypnotized
I'm hypnotized
Well, I could sleep forever,
But it's of her I dream.
If I could sleep forever,
I could forget about everything
If I could sleep forever.
If I could sleep forever.
If I could sleep forever,
(Yeah)
Well, we assure you the procedure is safe and routine
Dramamine sends haunting dreams (Dramamine sends haunting dreams)
With an incessant drip, signs pockets like a palsy
'cause you have to work hard for (yeah you work hard for what you've got)

Something practiced is something perfect
our selfishly, sly member, cuffed
The season's got us eating less and less (less and less)
You walk the full length of Manhattan in no time flat
While your slow, sick words start sticking to every stair
Yeah you work hard for what you've got

Yeah you work hard for what you've got
Yeah you work hard for what you've got
A million miles an hour
We swallowed dotted lines tonight
We ingest the pavement
Ignored the passing lines
And the streets they call our names
They call our names
We'll never feel the same
Tearing through this ghost town
Beyond the lifeless streets
Still it seems they call our names
They call our names
We'll never feel the same
Tonight will pass us by
As we're breathing in this moon-lit air
Tonight will pass us by
As the world it seems to disappear
But I'm asleep at the wheel
Another destination, far away from here
Where the streets, they call our names
They call our names
We'll never feel the same again
But tonight will pass us by
As we're breathing in this moon-lit air
Tonight will pass us by
As the world it seems to disappear
But I'm here with you
We will try forever
We will drive forever
I'm here with you
But now I'm asleep at the wheel
And still the streets, they call our names
They call our names, they call our names
But tonight will pass us by
As we're breathing in this moon-lit air
Tonight will pass us by
As the world it seems to disappear
But I'm here with you
We will try forever
We will drive forever
I'm here with you
We will try forever
We will drive forever
We will try forever
We will drive forever
We will try forever
We will drive forever
I'm here with you
With you, with you, with you
I see the day is coming
The night is led astray
The dawn of new desires
The end of yesterday
I walk the road to nowhere
Ah, that's what I call home
If I only knew what I was heading for,
But I don't have a place to roam
And then I heard the voices calling
Across the sky in flames
I could hear them clearer now
Once again I could hear them say:
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
But I'll remain awake
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
Could be my last mistake
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
From a place of shelter
Where I could get some rest
I was so cold but I couldn't care
And soon the sun caressed
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
But I'll remain awake
Dream, dream!
I can hear them say
Close your eyes my friend!
Dream, dream!
I hear the voices say
Go to sleep my friend!
I'll make no more mistake
Dream, dream!
I could hear them say
Go to sleep my friend!
My frozen eyes refuse to see
Something tells me it's too dangerous to sleep
It's like I've been thru this before
Here I am! Frozen to the core
...Frozen to the core...
I know I must be dreaming
Or am I still awake
Hallucinations rule me
But right now, what difference does it make?
...I am falling again...
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
But I remain awake
Dream, dream!
I hear the shadows say
Go to sleep my friend!
Dream, dream!
I hear the darkness breathe
Go to sleep my friend!
And I fade away
Dream, dream!
I heard the voices say
Close your eyes my friend!
And now I fade away
Dream, dream!
Plenty of emotions
Surrounding my way
Tons of frustrations
Covering my brain
I know nothing is as it seems
I know
I'm drowning in a sea
I'm missing my oxygen
There's no oxygen here
I need help, you see
Underwater I cannot breathe
Underwater I cannot speak
Underwater I can only sleep
Sleep, sleep
It is you're time
What is this? Now I can breathe again
What is this? Now I can see it
Because I open my eyes on time
Sleep, sleep
It is your time now
I know it's your time
Am I sleeping with my eyes white
Am I alone
Am I staring into bright lights
Have I gone home
I must be dreaming when I'm sitting here
With someone else's clothes
Am I sleeping with my eyes white
Won't you let me know
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side
Ooooo...
Am I sleeping with my eyes white
Am I alone
Am I following the lines on
The faces that are shown
I wanna see your hair line and cheek bones, your red lips, your cell phone
Would you let me know
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side
Ooooo...
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side
Ooooo...
sleep little one
tomorrow's more fun
we'll dance in the rain
and we'll sing in the sun
i think you're the best
but you're being a pest
you know that i love you
but i need my rest
if you love me
you will go pee
put on your pajamas
and then go to sleep
please little friend
get in your bed
and let the adventures
be dreams in your head
sleep little one
tomorrow's more fun
we'll dance in the rain
and we'll sing in the sun
Well, I could sleep forever,
But it's of her I dream.
If I could sleep forever,
I could forget about everything
If I could sleep forever.
If I could sleep forever.
If I could sleep forever,
Oh oh-oh oh
All the things I€™ve heard and seen released today
Yeah I keep them in my memory sort of filed away
I know they€™ll be around to visit one more time
To run beside me softly in the chambers of my mind
Oh, I know that feeling
The one that means I€™m dreaming
Memories kind of wheeling
But like I thought, it happens all the time
All the time
I had a dream of God€™s machine the other night
And there were crowds of angels trying to help me fix my flight
To me it€™s just another boring very sleepy time
But they just come right in and try to stir my mind
Oh, I like that feeling
I like you when you€™re screaming
Now I start you bleeding
Doesn€™t matter friends, it happens all the...
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
I remember when the falled man would crush my fingers
The lady wouldn€™t help me €˜til I screamed
And I was just an ordinary lonely child
So tell me what this crazy nonsense really means
My fingers hurt, I€™m screaming
I don't wanna known that feeling
Now I start my bleeding
Doesn€™t matter kids, it happens all the...
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
I€™m, oh I€™m, I€™m scatterbrained today
But I know it€™s in my memory
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
(There€™s a man inside my head)
(He maybe might just want you dead)
(There€™s a man inside my head)
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
(There€™s a man inside my head)
(Thinks he might just want you dead)
(There€™s a man inside my head)
She's so fine it's just amazing
I can't help but just keep staring
Like a magic spell found only in my eyes
That I can share
That I will share
Like a rainbow brought up in the sky
And she don't care
'Coz she don't care
She's so fine it's just amazing
I can't help but just keep staring
Like a smile that hides away her pain
That she can share
That she will share
Look into her eyes and you will see
That she don't care
'Coz she don't care
I'm amazed that the world can be
So beautiful
She's beem here so many times
Before she can't remember
When she last felt anything at all
But this fear and anger
She states intently at the door,
Listens for his footsteps
She knows exactly what's in store
And the knowing makes it worse
When he calls her daddy's little girl,
She doesn't keep him
And when he crushed her
She can't feel her screems are silent
Hides in the corner of her mind
Where she plays contentedly
She leaves this night more far behind
Escapes inside her dreams
Floating high above her bed
Staring at her father's head
Wishing one of them were dead
Oh I feel so tired
I cannot hardly keep open
My eyes
My thoughts are scattered
and I cannot say a word
and I can't seen to remember
anything I've learned
Well do you have some of those days
When you can't be who you wanna be
When you just need to close your eyes
Pull the covers up so high and drift away
and sleep so soundly
and dream profoundly
Cast all your cares on the
Only thing that you really need
and sleep so soundly
Now I feel so light
My sense of movement's slowed
and somehow my tongue's tied
My thoughts are shattered
and they're making stars in the sky
and I've never felt so speechless
in my life
Well do you have some of those days
When you just need, you just need to be
When you just need to shut your mouth
Close your eyes breathe in and out and
Drift away
Sleep so soundly
and dream, just dream profoundly

Hey there you
Way out there in the distance
Can you hear me?
Are you there?
I know it's late
So please forgive my persistence
But i'm hanging
Do you care?
So lay back
Call off the attack
'Cause if you look deep
Dreams are nothing that I lack
And all I seek
A final chance to speak
And I would let the whole thing keep
If I could just sleep
Hey there you
Way out there could you show me?
Just a signal
Or a sign
That after all
All these years that you know me
And I'm not just
Killing time
So lay back
Call off the attack
'Cause if you lok deep
Dreams are nothing that I lack
And all I seek
A final chance to speak
And I would let the whole thing keep
If I could just sleep
And as I lay there at night
Building castles in the air
Out of alibis and all those little lies
And then I look inside
And pray that I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
(Sleep)
(chorus)
The hazy days go to nights returning on and on
The eye in the sky that don't lie be watching all y'all
The troublesome time filled anxieties just keep
crawling on
And a dream world line up in your mind just keep on
calling y'all
The shining lights of stages after the show are faded
The crowd is gone away, and now the dawning day
Gives ways to creatures lurking, can hear the crickets
chirping
Only the owls can see for this is when they start their
prey
The homeless ask for quarters for shelter and some
water
Say "sorry not today" and turn and walk away
The busy street is empty whistling winds are blowing
gently
Listening intently to all of the things they have to
A day of work completed, a night of rest is needed
Almost done with a book but eyelids too heavy to read
The fireplace is kindling, snug with your queen and
building
About the victories tomorrow's gonna bring your way
(chorus)
(I hope that what I have written will be of some
assistance)
Gazing outside the window the sunny skies dwindle
And now it's full of stars a hurling comet soars
While during the body's slumber the soul begins to
wander
To dream dimensions see the inner conscious doesn't
pause
Keeps moving where it's bound to say now I lay me down
After that stretch and yawn energy left and gone
The sandman's on your shoulder whispering in your ear
he told you
Let all your problems go tonight I'm rapping hear my
song
A day of work completed a night of rest is needed
Almost done with a book but eyelids too heavy to read
The fireplace is kindling, snug with your queen and
building
About the victories tomorrow's gonna bring your way
(chorus x2)
Wide awake I`m laying in the light
In this place the light shines so bright
How I long for night
How I wish for night
The light is burning I can`t close my eyes
What have they done to me
What is this place I`m in
What have they done to me
Is anybody in here
Can anybody hear
Is anybody listening
Please help me I`m afraid
So afraid
I`m so scared
I`m so scared
In this place of quiet blinding light
I scream In this room without a shadow, a shadow
I must be bound `cause I can`t move
I can hear but I hear nothing, nothing
Nothing but me
How many days how many nights
Am I in this hell of silent pain
I don`t understand what they`re needing me for
I`m so tired but I cannot close my eyes
If I can`t look away the light will blind my sight
Is there someone?
Can anybody hear me? Is there somebody?
Please answer me!
Save me, save me
From this torture game
Save me, save me
From this horror play
There must be a cause I don`t understand
Save me, save me I`ll do anything
Why they don`t ask any questions
Why they don`t want any answers
Are they just watching me die
A tiny piece of sand is falling through the light
A tiny drop of sweat is breaking on my brow
Seconds crawling moments crawling
Minutes seem like days
Hours seem like years
They are endless
Time`s standing still
Incarnation of my fears
Incarnation of my fears
The eye in the sky is watching me die
The light in my sky is burning my eyes
The electric eye is watching my cries
The eye in the sky is watching me die
I`m lost in a daydream
Noone will hear, hear my screams for help
For help Lightning flash before my eyes
Needles pinned into my mind
Pain is growing
I try to hide
In my mind where they can`t ever find me
They`ll never find me I`m hiding inside me
I`m so tired
I`m so tired
I`m so tired
Sleep
I want to sleep
I want to sleep until the end
Sleep I need to sleep
I need to sleep until the end I dream
The endless dream
`Til I `m fading away
I`m fading away
Sleep I need to sleep
I need to sleep until the end
And dream the endless dream
`Til I`m fading away
I`m fading away
Like a prisoner locked up They have taken away my home
They `ve stolen my life
They took away my family
Their real purose
I`ll never find I can`t escape,
I can`t escape
I can`t escape,
I can`t escape
I can`t escape,
I can`t escape
I can`t escape,
I can`t escape
I can`t remember my name
I know I`m part of their game
A secret game without a name
This painfull game
Needles in my vains
Poison in my vains
I reach the final curtain
The end is getting certain
My pain begins to get away
The torture is lifted up from me
Getting weaker I`m falling deeper
By light surrounded i feel ungrounded
I`m so tired, I`m so tired
Sleep I fall asleep
And I will sleep endlessly
And dream
The final dream
`Til I`m fading away
I`m fading away
Sleep
I fall asleep And I will sleep
Endlessly I dream My final dream
I dream Endlessly
How can it feel so nice?
Why does it feel so right?
I think I've been somewhere special
I want to go back there
Sleep
I think I will
Go back to sleep
Oh it's so cold and shivery outside my cocoon
Now I'm on my way
Sleep
Oh sleep
Why shall I endure something, that never belonged to me?
How shall I endure something, that makes me suffer day by day?
It's all so senseless, it's all so meaningless...emotionless!
you got your sleeping pills
and I got my videogames
I'm trying hard
to let it go
and beat you up
in my head
and I won
I won
I won
Low try to read
what's left behind
a thousand days of misery
Now this days don't seem so bad
the lost i can go for, no no no
Oh, I could be a hero
I could be a lover of a thousand movie queens
I could be a hero
I could be anything
Caught in the sunrise
And I'm blinded by the light
Caught in the moonrise
And I'm blinded by the night
Chorus:
Fall asleep in the afternoon
How do you know?
Fall asleep in the May of June
How do you, how do you, how do you, how do you know?
How do you know?
Bored in the city
And I'm trampled by the street.
Bored in the country
And I'm trampled by the heat.
Repeat chorus
Bad dreams never stay too long,
They always go away by the break of day.
So, just sleep when things go wrong,
They go away, leave with the day.
Repeat chorus
Sleep is night begins my day
Dreams are real and near is away
I close my mind off from the light
My day is sleep begins by night
All those stories in my head
Come to life atop by bed
I doze my mind off from the light
My day is sleep begins by night
Oh, I could be a hero
I could be a lover of a thousand movie queens
I could be a hero

Fickle words crowding your mind
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in
And carry you over to a new morning
Try as you might
You try to give it up
Seems to be holding on fast
It's hand in your hand
A shadow over you
A beggar for soul in your face
Still it don't mater if you won't listen
If you won't let them follow you
You just need to heal
Make good all your lies
Move on and don't look behind
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in
And carry you over to a new morning
Day after day
Fickle visions messing with your head
Fickle, vicious
Sleeping in your bed
Messing with your head
Fickle visions
Fickle, vicious:
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in
My head on the ground with my mouth full of dirt
Your foot in my face is what keeps me alive
When it's over, when it's over, when it's over
When this is over, I want sleep
Opened the door with a gun in his hand
Sometimes I think I'm gonna catch it in the back
Feed me a line, I've had a few
Clean my clock, guess I had it coming
When it's over, when it's over, when it's over
When this is over, I want sleep
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
How I love to sleep
I was back in Mahomet, Illinois,
A Mongoloid child played with
Aa bright orange smurf ball
Gurgling to himself contentedly
Next to a tree. In the middle
Of the street stood a small
Repulsive chihuahua-like beast with
Huge bulging lascivious eyes and sickly
Liver spotted skin. It llifted its tail
And I saw a strange puckered
Cuntlike orafice with a tongue.
The beast started whispering to me
Beckoning to me. Mongo started jumping
Up and down screaming. The neighbors
Ran to their trailor homes and locked
Their doors. I was possessed.
I picked up the beast and
Fucked it with uncontrolled lust.
It turned its head and leered at
Me as I pumped it again aand again.
It started laughing. Suddenly a sharp
striking pain shot deep into my bowels.
I pulled out. The beast, still laughing
Deposited a milky afterbirth substance
Then ran into the woods. At the base of
My penis, the beast's sphincter was
Clamped down hard. I cut it off with a
Boyscout knife. The neighbors stared
>From their windows. "Look at me!" I screamed
"I fuck your neighborhood pets!"
I went home and hid inside my room.
>From the window I saw a police car next
To the afterbirth in the street. A fat redneck
Cop waddled out of the squad car bent over
Picked up a nugget of placenta sniffed it and
Said, "Yep it's been fucked get out an A.P.B.
Immediately!" I locked the doors. My belly hurt
more and more. My cock turned grey and liverspotted
Like the beast. I squeezed the head and a parasitic
Blood worm oozed out. I grabbed the worm
And pulled it out slowly. Layers of skin from
My belly to my upper thighs dissolved as I
Pulled the worm. Like an onion, layer
After layer of epidermis melted off my body with
Each tug of the worm. I woke up.
I was pissing straight up into the air through
The semi-erect tissue of a descending piss boner.
It splashed against my stomach and thighs.
God I love to sleep.
Sleep
Cover me with your blanket
Get me out of this world
For a spell
Take me away
To the world of dreams
Where I'm not afraid of silence
Where I'm not afraid to think
I'm not so stupid I can't see
There's nothing up ahead of me
I'm not so stupid I don't know
About all of the wrong roads
the wrong roads
the wrong roads
Sleep
Cover me with your blanket
Somehow I always knew
I would not make it
I'm the sum of my mistakes
I've only got myself to blame
But what's on show -
Do I want any of it anyway?
Sleep
Can there only be
One ending
One end for me
Unsure and shy
It was easier not to try
Now I'm feeling lost and old
And that there's nowhere left to go
I'm forever seeing
Myself running
Heading for the horizon
Escaping, escaping
The choices
I have made
I chose this place
I chose this place
Sleep
Take
The new born moon seems like a cradle, shining on the desert sand
Scent of sandalwood and jasmine, a goddess with a silver skin
I am painting all your flowers, I'm the shadow of your dream
Who changed your opium to money shiva calls your name,
Why don't you sleep?
You're not worth a passing glance, I'm the picture in your mind
Who can feel the wind blows gently sparkling dust over the land
A stone is not a stone until I tell you what it's supposed to be
Who changed your opium to money shiva calls again,
Why don't you sleep?
And all our dreams are rushing to the river
The river that has always flowed
When maya comes and sets our hearts on fire
Our dreams will show the way back home
Lighter than a tuft of feathers, dancing with the rays of light
Digging oceans with my fingers, patterns carved into the sky
The creation of the earth is in my sight which no one's seen before
Sparkles of awakening knowledge shiva calls your name,
Why don't you sleep?
And all our dreams are rushing to the river
The river that has always flowed
When maya comes and sets our hearts on fire
Frightened and weeping
I read my name on a tombstone in a graveyard I don't know
In another dimension sitting with a pale face
On the hill of the dead!
The clouds all painted pink
Me wrapped in white cotton, nobody can see me at all
The letters of my name, iridescent and melting in the sun
Unsatisfied and restless, seeking in wrong places
Wading through a sea of my desires
When I burned away my bonds
I knew that I could not remain the same!
I left a fragment of my soul
Knotted in a tree top as a present for the endless universe
My form is full of light
As I'm going to the woods to find myself again
All the good, all the bad
All the pleasure, all the pain
All the yearnings of the brave,
All the sun and all the rain
All the beauty, all the dirt
All the love and all the hate
All the laughing, all lamenting, the acceptance of our fate
All illusions that we have,
All our secret fairytales,
Are doomed to slow decay; are flowing down the stream.
Fill these spaces up with days
In my room, you can go, you can stay
I can't sleep, I can't speak to you, I can't sleep
Now these years locked in my drawer
I'll open to see just to be sure
And so I'm reaching out for the one
And so I've learned the meaning of the sun
And all this like a message comes to shift my point of view
And watching through my own light
As it tints the shade of you
Hold my wine hold it in
Nobody's lost but nobody wins
And I can't sleep, I can't speak to you, I can't sleep
And so I'm reaching out for the one
And so I've learned the meaning of the sun
And all this like a message comes to shift my point of view
And watching through my own light
As it tints the shade of you
I can't sleep, I can't speak to you, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I can't speak to you, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I can't speak to you, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I can't speak to you, I can't sleep
I can't sleep, I can't speak to you, I can't sleep
It's late
And I'm fighting the monsters under my bed
Spinning me around
And round
And all come out in the wash
These tired eyes
This tired mind
These tired lungs of mine
Lullaby
Roll on
Sunshine, winter, roll on
Sunshine, winter, roll on
Sunshines, winter roll on
Roll on
Leave me behind the black wall of decadence.
Burn it all. Dance with the flames that he dictates.
Breathe in the smoke and get high on misery.
Drifting deeper. The current drags you down.
Rest your eyes. Live amongst the shadows.
Fall into sleep.
Walk through the light.
At last you're on your own.
Your eyes starts drifting away
And times keeps slipping away
Sleep, it never comes easy if it even comes at all
But that's probably for the best
You can keep you rest 'cause I don't want it anymore
It steals my time
A waste of life
A waste of breath
A drain on my sanity
I walk alone at night
Just waiting for the day
I'll never sleep again
I don't want it, I don't need it anymore
[x2]
I never sleep
I lie down, I toss and turn all night
I get up and pace the floors
Until the dark turns into night
I never sleep
She's coming, she's trying to steal my breath
But I stay strong
I won't be charmed by the cousin of death
Sleep, it never comes cheap
Believe she's coming to harvest the weak
She whispers softly with gentle sighs
If you lie down never close both eyes
That tired feeling isn't real - It's a trap
The devil needs a soul to steal
It's a battle of wills, a nocturnal fight
You gotta outlast the night
I'll never sleep again
I don't want it, I don't need it anymore
[x2]
I never sleep
I lie down, I toss and turn all night
I get up and pace the floors
Until the dark turns into night
I never sleep
She's coming, she's trying to steal my breath
But I stay strong
I won't be charmed by the cousin of death
shades of gray
in the color field
bring silent nothing for me
sleep silent
sleep silent
close your eyes
open your mind
sweet whispers nail into you
so silent
sleep silent
bleed
you're gonna let me bleed
you're gonna let me bleed
you're gonna let me bleed
let me bleed, let me bleed
Right off the bat
You just shoot down everything
And dark as the night
You thrive upon troubled times
Right off the bat
You just shoot down everything
No love in your heart
There's no love in your life
Anymore
Just sleep
Sleep
Now the tables turning
But your lips met and advance go only so far
Wishing someone had told us about her
With our hands tied and our patience waning
And the mood goes from urgent to not so as hours pass
slow
Screaming this is surrender
I've got a mind
To just tell you everything
With no holding back
All without any lies
And now that we're here
Let's just break apart everything
And secretly try
Try to put some love in your life
But for now
Just sleep
Sleep
Now the tables turning
But your lips met and advance go only so far
Wishing someone had told us about her
With our hands tied and our patience waning
And the mood goes from urgent to not so as hours pass
slow
Screaming this is surrender
Sleep
Now the tables turning
But your lips met and advance go only so far
Wishing someone had told us about her
With our hands tied and our patience waning
And the mood goes from urgent to not so as hours pass
slow
Screaming this is surrender
Now the tables turning
(this is surrender) [x3]
With our hands tied and our patience waning (this is
surrender)
Now the tables turning
[ScareCrow]
Please stay sleep, please stay sleep
please stay sleep, you niggas stay sleep
Sippin on six murder minutes, the sauce I give blood
from the cup to the coffin lid grill
Silence for singin some many six songs
of a place they call heaven now skids or broke hell
Christian or rune, my Lithonia despite ghetto
suspension suspect a sent or no souls
Sinister sins I decided distract on a ancient crucial
past like Krueger's is gross
Satanic in scent were wrote on the scent
it's so sacred created by Lucifer slaves
Silent, secluded in secret somewhere in the swamp
in the land of protest a man-day
Infinite six, eternal the six
forever the six I sits outta da flames
Sick minded soldiers wit suffering
singing and searching to stable severe for some pain
Scarecrow was me, I was sent from the ceiling
crossed over the thorn on my venomous tips
Such in the same antisocial by there is no sun
daily as the right wipe on my lips
Indulge yourself with the posters
and noisy money and drugs interior golds
I tell you how is your profit
demand if it gets the whole world da new dinners and clothes
[Gangsta Boo]
I click so quick, my spells are slick
I'm comin' again with much more
You niggas be jealous cuz my profit sellin'

Just listen, I shouldn' have to mention
Yo ass is in the click, you fell in the click
cuz you run yo mouth around the wrong misses bitch
Yo peep this, my niggas be packin' artillery making yo ass whine
I'm packin' this bomb ass car that's robbin yo ass blind all the time
You think I love you, never nigga I'm out to get my cheese
Like Roger Rabbit, who framed the nigga that guy left on his knees?
Smokin' out, cuz I need to get high before I go on my mission
My profit soldiers call me all about this thing called pimpin'
So listen nigga before you think you got a convict (bitch)
You got a steaming matter lil' boy that want the lifestyle of rich
[Hook:]
Sleep baby sleep
Princes is all I dream
Beware of this cloud, cuz it is just too deep
Sleep baby sleep
[DJ Paul]
We pimpin up on these hoes wit the Mack-10
The Mack-12 hit 'em wit the Mack-11
Catch ya slippin at the 7-11
Put the swords in the back of his cap, send him straight to heaven 7
Lily villains? couldn't stop these hits

While you thinking we slackin' up, we jackin' up yo fuckin shit
Enemies from day one, but today sons, don't last, so ball it
Where ya run at? Da Three Six gun that, all bitches about the cheap
Hangin low and standin' hi, stayin' hi, on the mutha fuckin street
[Crunchy Black]
Should I let a nigga live?
Should I let a nigga die?
I should watch a nigga cry
While I sing dem lullaby
As da tears hit the floor
Dealin' shit, how not a roar?
Crunchy Black is not a whore
And Raven Red and heavens door
As I soar through yo life
You be beggin' for some Christ
Aint no mutha fuckin' Christ
All I wanna see is die
[Juicy J]
Yo sleep at night, we coming through yo mutha fuckin' window pane
Make sure at night, you shut it tight so the killer wont split ya brain
Don't make a move in ya room you better believe it's a big surprise
Nuttin but them two like a glock boy a sick infrared between ya eyes
Tie that bitch up wit the gray tape,

Chop, chop, chop, cut the dead body up till ya know theres nothing left
Please stay sleep!

I never thought I'd live to see the day
I never thought I could give it all away
But as long as I'm close you'll be here
And as long as I'm far I know you live
But it all comes crashing down in
The face of maturity
Nothing hides her feelings quite like eye shadow
And all she wears is pink
You think maybe if I asked her
You think she would move in with me?
I think maybe she will do that
I never thought I'd live to see the day
I never thought I could give it all away
But as long as I'm close you'll be here
And as long as I'm far I know you live
But it all comes crashing down in
The face of maturity
Nothing hides her feelings quite like eye shadow
And all she wears is pink
You think maybe if I asked her
You think she would move in with me?
I think maybe she will do that
I know this is the last you'll hear from me
I leave you with my love and responsibility
Please don't destroy what I have made
Treat it as if I would have stayed
Woke myself up from a dream to see you there
The most beautiful sight I'd seen
And if I could wake you now and tell you one thing
I'd say I'm sorry for the pain you felt
Sleep a peaceful sleep and we'll be okay
Watching you is sleep enough for me
And dream your dream and we'll be okay
Watching you is sleep enough for me
Sleep enough for me
Sleep enough for me
If I never loved you I'd have never lived
And if I never lived I'd never know your touch
Never known your scent and never known your smile
I'd never know you never know me
I wish I had the words that would charm the world
But I could speak for hours and never have loved
So don't let these words get in the way
Talk to myself again, all alone, on my own
Walk by the scene again, just to see what people see
Caught in your stubborn hold, and I'm so far from home
So turn the lights on, turn the lights on
Turn the lights on for me
Keep the lights on, keep the lights on
Keep thelights on for me
Don't go to sleep
Lost in your thoughts again, consciously you think of me
Focus your perfect words with a pen you write me in
I can't be reached, so far from here, I need you near
So turn the lights on, turn the lights on
Turn the lights on for me
So keep the lights on, keep the lights on
Keep the lights on for me
Don't go to sleep
I wait for you, I stay for you
So turn the lights on, turn the lights on
Turn the lights on for me
So keep the lights on, keep the lights on
Keep the lights on for me
Don't go to sleep
Walking in my sleep at night
And you can´t have me
Can´t have me
Ever
Walking in my sleep
So you can´t have me
Disappeared, gone
You have gone out of my dreams
Walking in my sleep
With my flesh in bed
Still you are there
Think you´ll never let me be
Walking in my sleep
So you can´t have me
Disappeared, gone
You have gone out of my dreams
Walking in my sleep
With my flesh in bed
Still you are there
Just get the fuck out of my dreams
Walking in my sleep at night
And you can´t have me
Can´t have me
The day vanishes
Withers like trodden grass
Our whispers are wafting along by the breeze
Through an open passage
Absorbed by the night
Conjure up the sleep
Sleep, sleep stealing through us
Cover our eyelids with silk
Carrying someone
Carrying someone in wavy water
The ocean is troubled to its depths
Thunderbolts and fireflies
Play the grand piano
Sear the sleeking silk
The embryo cowers in fear
And stares through the surface
Fear, fear, striking fear
Burying someone
Burying someone in wavy waters
And it is so strange
With these eyes out into darkness
And it is so strange
All they want to do is sleep
And it is so strange
They want to sleep through silence
And it is so strange
'Cause I am wide awake
And it is so strange
How all this could be over
If you would walk in
If you put me to rest
And it is so strange
That my voice seems to've gone quiet
And even stranger still
That I never will be found
All I want to do
Is to drift away
Hush-a-bye baby
All I want to do is go to sleep
Rain comes down, crawling through my sole
I'm not a rainy man, darling breathe this cold
Your steps go ahead and wander through my way
I'm only thinking about what I have to say
Step down in the morning
Step down in the morning tide
I'm not waiting, waiting makes you old
Oh, you step down in the morning
You lit the fire but don't you see that I'm waving?
Waving in your sleep but you just fall asleep
Blue turns brown, coffee I don't pour
Another cigarette signs my wooden floor
Your hair's not bad, your milk-like skimming skin
I'm only dreaming about food that follows pray
Well I know my days are boring
I hate them but they're friends of mine
So I'm waving waving in your sleep.
When I come home in the morning
I let the fire burn in the sink
I'll be waving waving in your sleep
I was late for the wrong reasons
all borders? and no light
god is a nothing phantom and a pocket light
cause it's late for the one reason
The sun was up all night
and I put my arms around you
to? hold you tight
on and on and on and on
someone has sleep for me
or is it all just letters and poems
on and on and on and on and on
someone has to sleep for me
or is it all just letters and poems
keeping the night for the wrong reason
these borders hold no light
cause god is a nothing phantomabd a pocket light
cause I stayed for the wrong reason
the sun was up all night
and I put your arms around you
but to hold you tight
on and on and on and on
someone has sleep for me
or is it all just letters and poems
on and on and on and on
someone has to sleep for me
or is it all just letters and poems
on and on and on and on
someone has sleep for me
or is it all just letters and poems
on and on and on and on and on
someone has too much? sleep for me
or is it all just letters and poems
And my eyes shut tight as the eyes of dark slip away
And I'll drift through dreams till the dawn of the day
When the sun comes up and I'll be here alone
Time plays the same joke again
Where it drags out forever a longer
Always could last only seconds as shorter
Those sweet hours when you're here by my side
And all these days are never ending
All the time life grew long and bye
I'll sleep long and well tonight
Because in dreams you're in my sight
When eyelids shut I'm not lonely anymore
And everything within the world is right
And a voice on wire is a sad replication if best put
The phone is the only means that I have
To bridge the lonely distance back to you
Hang up and long for your touch
Which I've missed now for weeks since aside
That being apart isn't easier with time
I can only count the seconds until I hold
And all these days are never ending
All the time life grew long and bye
I'll sleep long and well tonight
Because in dreams you're in my sight
When eyelids shut I'm not lonely anymore
And everything within the world is right
I'll sleep long and well tonight
Because in dreams you're in my sight
When eyelids shut I'm not lonely anymore
And everything within the world is right
A voice in my head, a voice from my past
Talking in tongues I recognize
A sound in my room, is it rain on my window
I lie awake eyes open wide
Sometimes I read, or watch my t.v.
Tryin' in vain to close my mind
I'm tossin'and turnin'
I'm cold then I'm burnin'
Sometimes I think this bed's too wide
Oh, how I wish I could sleep
Oh, how I wish I could sleep
I think of my father remember my mother
I wonder if they can see me now
Sleep¡.
Sleep¡.
Oh, how I wish I could sleep
Oh, how I wish I could sleep
Solo
Sleep¡¡..sleep
Oh, how I wish I could sleep
Oh, how I wish I could sleep
Oh, how I wish I could sleep
Oh, how I wish I could sleep
Manny charlton
Dreaming of the winter sun
As I lie in bed I turn my head
And try to get away from the summer
Feeling like a thief on the run
All these people all around me
Only think about their money,
Only think about a way to get in
Someone else's bed and have fun there
Don't you wake me up tonight
Don't you wake me up tomorrow
Is it wrong or is it right?
I wanna sleep away my sorrow
Dreaming of the autumn rain
Walking through the woods,
If I could I would be sleeping until then
People, happy as can be,
All around me and they found me
And they try to get me dancing on the
Streets and they're romancing,
Yes I have to get away or I kill them!
Don't you wake me up tonight
Don't you wake me up tomorrow
You got arms to hold me tight
You got lips to ease my sorrow
Don't you know it feels allright
Lying here with you together
And if I could you know I might
Stay in bed and sleep forever
Do you think it's a crime
to stay in bed all the time?
I know what they say about me
But I don't care, I don't care, I don't care!
My eyes close like the curtains after a play
And my mind opens like a vista, gold in hue.
And my thoughts run like a river under an ocean
And the sandman is given his due (yes he is, yes he is)
I can't wait for me to get some sleep.
The sandman is on his midnight creep.
Slumber enter, take me deep, until I am rested.
My dreams sore like an angel in flight
And my worries run like the sunshine runs from the night.
I can't wait for me to get some sleep.
The sandman is on his midnight creep.
Slumber enter, looking skyward, counting sheep.
I pray the lord my soul to keep until I am rested.
My eyes close like the curtains after a play
And my mind opens like a vista, gold in hue.
And my thoughts run like a river under an ocean
And the sandman is given his due (yes he is, yes he is)
I can't wait for me to get some sleep.
The sandman is on his midnight creep.
Slumber enter, take me deep, until I am rested.
I can't wait for me to get some sleep.
The sandman is on his midnight creep.
Slumber enter, looking skyward, counting sheep.
Lethargy and me are the best of friends
Before my day begins I wanna make it end
Shut off the alarm and pull up the sheet
And pretty soon I'll be back asleep
Wanna sleep for a year wake up and take a nap
To tired to roll over and light a cigarette
Worry about my problems when I wake up next
I'm going back to bed cause I'd rather be asleep
Hanging in clubs till the sun comes up
Why am I here I think I must be nuts
Well sometimes I really think
Sleep
The velvet darkness
Where time stands still
Those sweet hours
Where the challenged finds
A moment's refuge
Embrace the warm shadows
Unconscious the truth
The torn soul leaves its house
And journeys on moon paths
To the edge of the world
And for a brief while
Again you feel the caress of the wind
On the plains of evermore
Bird of sleep come carry us
Upon the wings of freedom
Journey to the refuge on the other side
Play again like children
Without sorrow in our hearts
And when you fly us back
All the things I?ve heard and seen in this today
Yeah, I keep them in my memory sort of filed away
I know they?ll be around to visit one more time
To run beside me softly in the chambers of my mind
Oh, I know that feeling
The one that means I?m dreaming
Memories kind of wheeling
But like I thought, it happens all the time, all the time
I had a dream of God?s machine the other night
And there were crowds of angels trying to help me fix my flight
To me it?s just another boring very sleepy time
But they just come right in and try to stir my mind
Oh, I like that feeling
I like you when you?re screaming
Now I start you bleeding
Doesn?t matter friends, it happens all the
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
I remember when the falled man would crush my fingers
The lady wouldn?t help me ?til I screamed
And I was just an ordinary lonely child
So tell me what this crazy nonsense really means
My fingers hurt, I?m screaming
I don't wanna known that feeling
Now I start my bleeding
Doesn?t matter kids, it happens all the
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
I?m, oh I?m, I?m scatterbrained today
But I know it?s in my memory
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
(There?s a man inside my head, he maybe might just want you dead)
(There?s a man inside my head)
Time to wake up, time to shake out, shake out all the madness going on
(There?s a man inside my head, he maybe might just want you dead)
searching for my soul
through chasms of my minds
longing my own desire
to make me apart of life
round and round this circle turns
never coming to end
hideous games played on my mind
driving me insane
this ring of painul delight
resides deep within my brain
insanity comes too naturally
when my arms bleed
crossing the sky
deep within these dreams
crashing back to the sea
the sleep numbs my mind
from todays reality
sleep
the dreams will come true
my life will be over soon
sleep my child
your life is doomed
Spend my nights howlin' at the moon,
Never wake before noon,
When the sun, it rises,
Oh, it always rises soon,
'Cause I spend my nights howlin' at the moon, yeah,
I never get sleep, sleep, sleep,
No, I just reach, rea-, reach,
I can feel it on the ends of my fingers,
And taste it on the tips of my teeth,
So you see why I never get sleep,
(I can't get no sleep,
Don't know why,
I can't get no sleep,
Don't know why,
I can't get no sleep,
Don't know why,)
Spend my night shootin' at the stars, yeah,
Tryin' to change the world with this guitar,
And I know it's a long shot, but it's working out so far,
So I spend my nights shootin' at the stars, hey,
I never get sleep, sleep, sleep,
No, I just reach, rea-, reach,
I can feel it on the ends of my fingers,
And taste it on the tips of my teeth,
So you see why I never get sleep,
I can't get no sleep (never get sleep),
Don't know why,
I can't get no sleep (never get sleep),
Don't know why,
I can't get no sleep (never get sleep),
Don't know why,
I can't get no sleep,
(Count sheep),
I've already tried,
(Drink whiskey),
It makes my throat too dry,
(Smoke weed),
It makes my eyes all red,
(Take a pill, Al),
What, and end up dead?
I can feel it on the ends of my fingers,
And taste it on the tips of my teeth,
So you see why I never get sleep, hey,
I never get sleep, sleep, sleep,
No, I just reach, rea-, reach,
I can feel it on the ends of my fingers,
And taste it on the tips of my teeth,
So you see why I never get sleep, yeah,
Yeah, you see why I never get sleep,
Come to
I need to feel
You bore me too
When you sleep too long
Strange house
Same day
When will you fall upon your face?
When will you fall upon your face?
Wake up
I dream for me
You must be high
'Cause you dare me
Strange house
Next day
When will you fall upon your face?
When will you fall upon your face?
When will you fall upon your face?
When will you fall upon your face?
When will you fall upon your face?

Sleep, sleep, sleep
How we love to sleep
At the close of day
When the joys of the day fade away
And the mem'ries sweet
Of the days repeat
In our dreams they creep
While we sleep, sleep, sleep
REPEAT ALL
what a cliché, I never wanna see you again
we're all so cliché, too much spandex on the brain.
If you believe your dreams will come true
then sleep is all you'll ever do
and if you think I'm gonna come to you
then go back to bed, take my friends there too.
In a sense we're exactly the same
we're both so different in every way. x2
Oh it's a shame that I mean to you this way
oh it's a crying shame,
but what you do is the same, its the same.
Oh someone told me that you really liked me
but I fell asleep almost instantly
and in my sleep I dreamt that you found me
Now I've found my feet so come and run with me.
In a sense we're exactly the same
we're both so different in every way. x2
Sleep........ I go to sleep. x2
Dream, dream, dream for her
As we plunge down
A dead end path of humanity
So they suffer
These are the days
In which blood is cheap
And it's the price of continued sleep
Don't trust, Don't believe
Those up top will gladly
Forfeit you and me
It's right in front of you
It's right in front of me
How many have to die
Before we see?
It's right in front of you
It's right in front of me
The writing's on the wall
But we're too blind to see
The truth's in front of you
The truth's in front of me
The blood is on the wall but we prefer to sleep
As we plunge down the dead end path
Of inhumanity so will we suffer
Is coming back at you it's coming back at me
But you'll just close your eyes
And let it bleed...
Just take a look at the papers
Your leaders
They're killers
They're liars
What they do in your
Name to make the bodies pile higher
The murders, the terror
They've done it forever
As we sit back and smile
At the script they sell us
(but now) the victims, they're rising
Their number's multiplying
They want their revenge for the years
That they've been dying
So now they come for me
So now they come for you
We didn't hear
recall, a means to conjure you up
your welcome awhile now
begone, this one too proud to love
too careful to send you off
i cannot sleep
i cannot think
i cannot dream
this kid, grotesques the paintings proof
that someones created
he knows, not what he thinks to lose
too stable to lend you off
i cannot sleep
i cannot think
i cannot dream
Good to heart
Is sleep at night
Hushing all your life
Nice to have you near to me
Good to feel your sighs
But one of these days
You're sure to be gone
And I'll have to carry on
Without You
It's nice to watch you sleep so deep
Damp and gentle there
And I almost called you baby now
Lick and smile your head
But how can I trust
You're really in love
And I'll have to carry on
Without you
So shut off your mind
And sleep my love
Drift and play and dream
Tomorrow is too near my doll
Tell me where you've been
Cos one of these days
You're sure to be gone
And I'll have to carry on
Without You
Without You
Evening hangs beneath the moon
A silver thread on darkened doon
with closing eyes and resting head
I know that sleep is coming soon.
Upon my pillow safe in bed
a thousand pictures fill my head
I cannot sleep my mind's aflight
and yet my limbs seem made of lead.
If there are noises in the night,
a frightening shadow, flickering light,
then I surrender unto sleep
where clouds of dreams give second sight.
What dreams may come both dark and deep,
of flying wings and soaring leap
as I surrender unto sleep
as I surrender unto sleep
as I surrender unto sleep
Freak midnight hour, clock strikes nearly twelve
I beare no hope inside this barren mind which aches
As it can't get no sleep
Eyes closed I reach for a dream,
But something bulls me back
In pressure one can't rest
And there still are enemies to resist
In every corner voices, whispers, haunting screams
And pale despair
Inside this head, there's a war that awakes
As the rest of the world exhausts
This night will bring no change
To what it's been for ages now
Awake, insane
One minute an hour
One hour a day
In every move there's a glimpse of end
A last goodbye, final farewell
I may be awake,
But take my word, that's all there is...
I see myself a broken man in the mirror's crack
A wretch, just this I'm asking for
Light is dim
In fact, it is naught
Spring went into summer,
Yet summer stepped aside
As autumn took its place
Then autumn died
And winter came to stay
Beyond the waste remains of
Autumns decayed suit
Neither heat nor frost
Maketh any difference
Silent solitude
Winter's reign
That which once was
And perhaps once more to be
Sleeps...
In the land where dreams are reality
And reality is no more to be
If thou from 'ere canst see
- Solitaire reality -
Winter thy cryb, and thus,
Thine crypt...
...And by spring's soft embrace you will awake
I kissed upon your lips this morning
As I moved softly and pulled away
Wonder if you know that I
Stand silently keeping an eye, on you
Someday you'll find love
Someone to know and hold
Before you're gone
A kiss that I missed this morning
I'm standing faceless in the rain
Was anyone supposed to know
How deep this feeling would go
Rain brings me back again
I wonder if you really knew
How hard it is to say this to you
I - will never let go
Someday you'll find love
Someone to know and hold
Before you...
Tell me of your life before you fell, you fell
What's the worst that you could say to me, set me free
Someday you'll find love
Someone to know and hold
Before you...
Someday you'll find love
I know it's late
I shouldn't call at this hour
But it's my fate
I need lips to devour
My nervous system is shot alright
I won't sleep unless you
Sleep with me tonight
Deep with me tonight
I know it's late
We've known each other awhile
I can't wait
To see your twisted smile
Kindred spirit of candle light
I won't sleep unless you
Sleep with me tonight
Deep with me tonight
And my thought to my saint
I'm so tired but I faint
Sleep with me tonight
Sleep with me
Sleep with me tonight
Sleep with me tonight
Drown out the machinery in my head
Bring your peace of mind to my bed
Without sleep there are no dreams
Without dreams we fall apart at the seams
Kindred spirit of candle light
I won't sleep unless you
Sleep with me tonight
Deep with me tonight
And my thought to my saint
I'm so tired but I faint
Sleep with me tonight
Sleep with me
Sleep with me tonight
Sleep with me
Sleep with me
Sleep with me
Sleep with me
Sleep with me tonight
Sleep with me
Sleep with me tonight
Sleep with me
Sleep with me
Sleep with me tonight
When I woke up this morning
you were so far away from me
And I knew it was a warning
of an empty space in between
Feeling free when I'm with you
But knowing I'm not far away from home
Now what am I supposed to do,
when the answers all come out wrong
And I need something to help me sleep
When I know you're not good for me
And I need something I can keep
From the empty space in between
From the empty space in between
You treated me like a goddess
When we were around everyone else
How come you couldn't notice me
When I was standing by myself
And I need something to help me sleep
When I know you're not good for me
And I need something I can keep
From the empty space in between
From the empty space in between
Something to help me, Something to help me, Something to help me to sleep
Our hearts were made as one
Perpetual love, why did you have to die?
I held you tight and said "loved one do not be afraid"
Just close your eyes and dream
Sleep forever in my arms
Our love, it never had a chance
A dream was all we had, you and I
They were blind, they could not see
That you and I, we were meant to be
I held you tight and said "loved one do not be afraid"
Just close your eyes and dream
Sleep forever in my arms
Our love, it never had a chance
A dream was all we had, you and I
[SOLO]
I held you tight and said "loved one do not be afraid"
Just close your eyes and dream
Sleep forever in my arms
Our love, it never had a chance
A dream was all we had, you and I
Sleep forever in my arms
Our love, it never had a chance
A dream was all we had, you and I
Sleep, just close your eyes and dream
Death is not what it may seem
time was when everything was right
when faces appeared in azure skies
hope was as real as the air
time was the color of her smile
but the night has come, it's time to sleep
and let the willows gently weep
home is a place where you can hide
a shelter away from other's eyes
a sanctuary in the ground
where a measure of love can be found
home is where you return to die
but night has come, it's time to rest
and try to recall happiness
close your eyes, dam the tears
wallow in the comfort of your dreams
look again, nothing remains
and you rest upon your memories
to cease the pain
what a shame it's over now
the moment of truth has arrived
when you come to terms with your lies
the neon dreams have died away
and all that's left are shades of grey
the day is gone, here comes the night
and your moment has arrived
you know that it's all over now
home, take me home
Choir of the sun chants inside the anti moon
Shockwaves rattle the Earth below with hymn of doom
Chilled rays freeze below the eye of silver sun
Damned souls gather in valley of the evil one
Phantasmal specter of two worlds collide
Planetoid soaked in rays of electric light
Stoner caravan from deep space arrives
Rides on the suncraft toward the glowing eye
Walk with the cleric under eye of silver sun
Damned souls gather in valley of the evil one
Choir of the sun chants inside the anti moon
[Ceschi]
Sleep all your problems away
Sleep 'til the blood rushes out from your face
Sleep so you always behave
Sleep and forget that you're breathing in meaningless
space
Sleep as the art world dreams on
Sleep during disaster, sleep during songs
Sleep while they're pointing and laughing along
Sleep has become who you want
So that you can never feel human again I'ma tell ya
Sleep and destroy
Sleep to the point that you're never annoyed
Sleep little angels like motionless toys
Sleep simple sicker than a style fencing through
brothers undercover heads 'til you forget
Sleep with dead bugs
Crawling on foreheads and tentacles touch
Your feet just patiently waiting to suck
Blatantly stuck between toes feasting slow reaching bones
eeking holes
Zee zee zee zee {*repeat 4X*}
Insect caravan pulls its way
Through the freezing and misty haze
Gypsy casts a spell of frost
Frozen solid our lives are paused
Glass village lies below
Castle of sleet with magic glow
Trapped inside icy glaze
The burning sunlight sheds its rays
Escape the tomb of deadly freeze
To the village of glass we have the keys
Ice people everywhere once inside
Far within the oaken tower
Exists the one with evil power
Magic channeler of earth's frustration
The Druid sleeps in meditation

Slumber killed by rays of the new red sun arising
Dreamer wakens to spectral gaze of light rays shining
Black steed carries him across the astral sand
Rides alone is the man from the magic caravan
I believe the signs of the reptile master
Sunbound spacepod rising faster
Earth drenched in black under starless sky above
Man on the mountain sets free the holy dove
Look onto the rays of the new stoner sun rising
Sonic Titan rides out on clouds of new horizon
Look onto the rays of the new stoner sun rising
Sonic Titan rides out on clouds of new horizon
What you get and what you see
Things that dont come easily
Feeling happy in my vein
Icicles within my brain
(cocain)
Something blowing in my head
Winters ice, it soon will spread
Death would freeze my very soul
Makes me happy, makes me cold
My eyes are blind but I can see
The snowflakes glisten on the tree
The sun no longer sets me free
I feel theres no place freezing me
Let the winter sun shine on
Let me feel the frost of dawn
Fill my dreams with flakes of snow
Soon Ill feel the chilling glow
Dont you think I know what Im doing
Dont tell me that its doing me wrong
Youre the one whos really a loser
This is where I feel I belong
Crystal world with winter flowers
Turns my day to frozen hours
Lying snowblind in the sun
Travelling toward the atomic sky
Passing through the wall of light we fly
To the center of the sun we go
Discovering secrets no one else has known
Within the center of the galaxy
Away from Earth and all its misery
Travelling toward the atomic sky
Passing through the wall of light we fly
Toward the center of the sun we go
Discovering secrets no one else has known
Within the center of the galaxy
Away from Earth and all its misery
Pressing on into the burning sky
Burning spaceship it's time to die
Our ship explodes
Our work is done
We've left our lives
