daniel sherman (@musicbydanielsherman) - permission to rest! lyrics

lay your head
weary traveler
you have my permission to rest

you’re not dead yet
weary traveler
take a breath
you have my permission to rest

i know its heavy
the sleep on your eyes
the revelations at night
the premonitions of existence ending
i know you feel it
we rose the ceiling too high
we said we were ascending
reaching for heaven
but h+ll was waiting for us, the curse we cast is spreading
we sleep again to dream a way of mending
why is it we take everything good and we murder it
why do we hurt like this?
maybe our purpose isn’t preservative
we’re ruinous beyond what is revealed on our surfaces
i’m sure of this
we’re given visions with no interpreters
we dream to see everything we could’ve been
all of the good and then
nightmares show us what’s been burning within
maybe we should alter our posture and practice listening
maybe the answer we’ve praying for has been
hidden in sleep
so come with me
i’m willing to dream the future
sometimes i see my potential
sometimes i see i need soutres
the demons in me get used to me
visiting, they’re abusing my
presence, taking advantage
they wanna leave, i’m refusing
when i see what they been doing
they see me and join my movement
when i wake up, they do too and
i see ‘em, they’re breaking through
they’re clawing at every wound
they open me for a view
if i dream again, will i lose
i’m fading i’ll pay dues again
lay your head
weary traveler
you have my permission to rest

you’re not dead yet
weary traveler
take a breath
you have my permission to rest

did you ever
wake up and wish you didn’t
remember
you want to sleep to sever
your obligation to rumination
you rule the nation under weather
the people living a silent battle who resonate with every record
the king of dreamers
the true believers with pure intentions
broken, restless
looking for hope in a destination with no relation
i can break it
the chains of maddening sickness
we serve our mental illness
i’m awakened
i see that we took dreaming further than intended
never ending
we thought we were invincible
not just just pretending
we were playing god when we made all of our advancements
connection can be so beautiful before the wicked damage it
we orchestrated funerals for future generations
we renovated our culture to thrive on our competition
so why are we so surprised when we struggle with body image
you look into childrens’ eyes and ask “will you be my repentance?”
we elevate all the lies we were told to prove our own innocence
maybe it’s time we tell ‘em honestly
we not what we did yet
lay your head
weary traveler
you have my permission to rest

you’re not dead yet
weary traveler
take a breath
you have my permission to rest
