Let Me Sleep
Oh, my love, it won't let me sleep
It pulls the blankets right off of my feet
It tears the very fabric of my dream

And my heart, won't let me leave
It's pealing itself off my sleeve
It's feeding me false memories

We turn dust into diamonds and words into birds
That promise me passage all over the world
The truth is we never get past the front door
I settle my debt, but I always want more, more, more

More, more, more
More, more, more

Out here
Is the last place I wanted to be
A foot soldier in your standing army
With my best years somewhere far behind me

Now here
Lies a golden opportunity
While you're sifting through all the debris
I can go some fine place where you'll never find me
You're miles behind me
You'll never find me now
All this love will end as cold
You get the vials with things we don't know
But we'll feel it deep down in our soul

And know only time can tell
If I go in your prison cell
Is this the road to heaven or will we burn in hell?

Your youth springs eternal, you never grow old
Your truth looks perverted, encrusted in gold
I have forgotten what I came here for
My cup runneth over but I still want more

More, more, more
More, more, more

Out here
Is the last place I wanted to be
A foot soldier in your standing army
With my best years somewhere far behind me

Now here
Is a golden opportunity
While you're sifting through all the debris
I will go some fine place where you'll never find me
You're miles behind me
You'll never find me now
Oh, my love, set me free
Forget me
Let me sleep

Oh, my love, set me free
Forget me
Let me sleep
