Sleep, sleep, still your breath and just sleep. Sleep through the drum-circle, the neighbour's garden, sleep through the fever, the sentence, and the eventual pardon.
Sleep, sleep, blot your eyes and just sleep. Sleep through her hands touching, the solemn submit; sleep through the wastelands, the war-zones, and sleep with the deficit.
Sleep, sleep, in the castle keep, sleep. Sleep for the potions, the poisons, the crimes you commit. Too steep is the gangway to an easier life, too far is the leap and too impossible, the wife.
Sleep, sleep, still your mind and just sleep. Keep to the sidelines, with intellect deep; fall to sleep in the limelight of your day,
for you have earned your rest, you have found your way.
