jeremy blake - sing me to sleep lyrics
i’ve been awake for hours
or maybe it’s been days
running hot, i’m drifting
see the smoke clouds in my wake
i need a heart attack
to rest this weary mind
i need a chain reaction
something that might bind me
we cannot stop these feelings
they’ve been with us since birth
each generation’s question:
how do we measure worth?
we used our skin as canvas
to mark the p-ssing time
we learned to read the stars
for the trouble close behind
[chorus]
that’s why i ask you to
sing
sing me to sleep
when the dawn breaks
i want to be deep
[post-chorus]
sing
sing me to sleep
if the bough breaks
what can we keep
there was a moment, fleeting
when i first learned your name
i may have known the sunrise
but i never knew the flame
you were the heart attack
that arrived just on time
to start the chain reaction
when you put your hand in mine
[chorus]
that’s why i ask you to
sing
sing me to sleep
when the dawn breaks
i want to be deep
[post-chorus]
sing
sing me to sleep
if the bough breaks
what can we keep
