Oh let me sink to the depths of sleep
Where no birds sing and no bugs creep

Let me drift through that endless ocean
Feeling neither pain nor emotion

Let me tumble through that abyss
Craving neither wealth nor a kiss

To sweet oblivion let me sink
Where I still breathe but do not think

Where eons pass like before I was born
And there is neither approval nor scorn

Oh let me to the womb return
Where all my knowledge I'll unlearn

Please let me like the sunset fade
To where I was before I was made
