Sleep Lyrics

Seven months on her own, a new life on the way
Her mom gone too early, advice come too late
The churches were full, so i guess he ain't saving nobody
And he cried every night, just like babies'll do
To say ‘hey mom, please wake up, i'm counting on you'
‘what a shame' friends would say, ‘we thought she'd end up being a doctor'
Ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
Than being someone else's dream
Ooh and i wonder what this life should be
Lately all i need's just a little more sleep

You dance back and forth, between rhythm and blues
It was brave or just stupid, but to tell you the truth,
If there was a difference, i guess i never knew what it was
It was reds in the morning and three blues at night
They said feeling sedated meant feeling all right
And if something's been wrong, i guess this is the light in the tunnel
Ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
Than feeling nothing constantly
Ooh and i wonder what this life should be
Lately all i need's just a little more sleep
Sometimes it's to wake up and some to forget
The chemical answers all the questions i have
I know i don't need it, i just don't know where i'd be without it
Ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
Than being someone else's dream
Ooh and i wonder what this life should be
Lately all i need's just a little more sleep,
Just a little more
