Sleep

There's a black sky Over my town It's a long night In a dark house There's enough fight For a showdown There's a black hole With no escape There's a dark soul As my inmate Where does it go Leaving no trace? Watch it take me over Let it suck me in Watch it pull me closer When does it begin? Sleep Why can't I just close my eyes and sleep? Wrap your arms around me As I dream Dream I just wanna close my eyes and Sleep I can't tell exactly what it means Takes me from a whisper to a scream Scream Sleep As the night falls And the sun dies There's a loud call From the inside But my mind's caught And my tongue tied As the night storms And the cold rains As the clouds form In my cold brain There is no warning And no break Watch it take me over Let it suck me in Watch it pull me closer When does it begin? Sleep Why can't I just close my eyes and sleep? Wrap your arms around me As I dream Dream I just wanna close my eyes and Sleep I can't tell exactly what it means Takes me from a whisper to a scream Scream Sleep And the darkness tends to throw me Off my game for just a moment Easy come and easy go again Takes me by surprise and shows me All the ways it tries to know me Cuts me off and here we go again Sleep Why can't I just close my eyes and sleep? Wrap your arms around me As I dream Dream I just wanna close my eyes and Sleep I can't tell exactly what it means Takes me from a whisper to a scream Scream Sleep
