Lately it's been so I don't know So many voices Too many choices Battles being fought Sitting on a corner Battles of thought Nobody sees her Internal vs external Which is which A raging inferno With no off switch It used to burn But dull is the hurt Now it is a custom Growing accustom What is pure Cannot endure It must grow black What once was a mansion Now a shack Don't even mention Turning back Can't go back Can't go on So where does that leave us In the black Before dawn Ashes and dust Return we must How soon how soon By the next full moon Sleep peaceful sleep Is what we all need We can't get there In this miserable nowhere Sleep sleep Come to me Let me breathe Finally

Sleep
Lately it's been so I don't know So many voices Too many choices Battles being fought Sitting on a corner Battles of thought Nobody sees her Internal vs external Which is which A raging inferno With no off switch It used to burn But dull is the hurt Now it is a custom Growing accustom What is pure Cannot endure It must grow black What once was a mansion Now a shack Don't even mention Turning back Can't go back Can't go on So where does that leave us In the black Before dawn Ashes and dust Return we must How soon how soon By the next full moon Sleep peaceful sleep Is what we all need We can't get there In this miserable nowhere Sleep sleep Come to me Let me breathe Finally
