Please sleep, my darlin', sleep

Your cry for inspiration

Never reaches ears on distant stars And every night our lonely planet

Slides across the universe

And I won't pretend, I understand Please sleep, my darlin', sleep

Your death by information

Won't disturb the peace on distant stars And even when you lock the doors

And slide behind the unlit shades

None of us saw strangers anymore Fall asleep with the windows open

Come to me with the worst you've said and done

You'll close your eyes and see me

A little death makes life more meaningful

I stand no chance at all Please sleep, my darlin', sleep

Your car crash in slow motion

Won't upset the pace on distant stars And one by one the years of our lives

Stumble as the moments pass

So please hold on, please hold on So fall asleep with the windows open

Come to me with the worst you've said and done

You'll close your eyes and see me

A little death makes life more meaningful

I stand no chance at all Please sleep, my darlin', sleep

Please sleep, my darlin', sleep So fall asleep with the windows open

Come to me with the worst you've said and done

You'll close your eyes and see me

A little death makes life more meaningful

I stand no chance at all
