Sleep Lyrics

The sky was gold 'til it rained
But I wasn't ready for a sign of God,
So I'm still here waiting,
Not willing to be blinded like a fool.

And like the silence, I surround you.
I pull apart the seams and separate the sound
But my eager arms are full
And that's how it's got to stay, dear,
For better or for worse.

We'll sleep when time allows.

Defy all of my strength and make a man of me.
(I swear, I swear I'll let you in.)
Your saga is something I can't read.
(I swear, I swear.)
Defy all of my strength and make a man of me.
(I swear, I swear I'll let you in.)
Your solace is something I don't need.
(I swear, I swear.)

(Asleep or still? ...)
And like the silence, I surround you.
I pull apart the seams and separate the sound
But my eager arms are full
And that's how it's got to stay, dear,
For better or for worse.
We'll aleep when time allows.
