SLEEP WHEN I'M DEAD

I've got a feelin' that I'm gonna be depressed

For the next couple of weeks

I won't be gettin' out of bed

Or doin' anything important

Or anything worthwhile

If my mother calls I'll open up a window and I'll smile and I'll say

I'm doin' fine

And I'll crawl right back to bed

Where I'll ruminate on past experiences in my head

And I'll think about my life

How I really missed the mark

How I'll never break this cycle

'Cause I like bein' in the dark

I'll leave my

Tab unpaid

Goodbyes unsaid

I'm lettin' off steam

He's losin' his head

Sold my car

Put it all on red

Stay up all night

I'll sleep when I'm dead

I had a chance at life and drank that chance away

I had a future that was promising but chose a life of pain

I'll suffer endlessly until the day I die with no relief

Push my family away

So when I'm gone no one will grieve and they'll say

"He's in a better place"

Knowin' damn well I'm in hell

For all the sins that I committed

For the things I did not tell

For all the lies that I have told

And the things that I have stole

For the hearts that I left broken

When I jumped into that hole

I'll leave my

Tab unpaid

Goodbyes unsaid

I'm lettin' off steam

He's losin' his head

Sold my car

Put it all on red

Stay up all night

I'll sleep when I'm dead

I'll leave my

Tab unpaid

Goodbyes unsaid

I'm lettin' off steam

He's losin' his head

Sold my car

Put it all on red

Stay up all night

I'll sleep when I'm dead

I'll sleep when I'm dead
