johnny manchild & the poor bastards - sleep lyrics

when i wake up, i close my eyes…
i try to remember my dreams from the night
i cling to the sheets, and try to shut my eyes and get out of this life
the angels scream from the backlit trees, yeah i hear them cry…
let him sleep, let him sleep

and it follows, this feeling of regret
not for what i have done, but for everything that i haven’t yet
if i make my bed, then i’ll lie in it…
but i can’t sleep, all i sow i reap, and i’m not makin sh-t
the ink is bleeding out, and all i write, i tear it up to bits
the last cry of a far cry sideshow, and no one wants to listen to it…

and i don’t know where i’m going but rest -ssured, i’m going there slow
and i’m betting on anywhere but here
poised for the poison, i’m running out of choices; in reflection, now i question what choice i had at all
fall to my knees, on the cemetery leaves, and i cry how i never said, my love, goodbye
fat, sick and yellow, the final words i bellow in the night: please god
let me sleep, let me sleep
