Shut down
It's easier than feeling
Come now
The promise of reprieve is wholly tempting
Don't think
About what lies ahead when you awaken
Slow blink
Your eyes are getting heavy as the day ends

Sun sets
You're living in the throes of daylight fading
Not fair
You do your very best, but you're still waiting
Call out
When day to day becomes too complicated
You fall down
And picking yourself up feels overrated

Sleep
Sleep

Stasis
Frozen to the spot as time elapses
Faithless
You watch as everybody else surpasses
Taken
Only what's been given, only dreamed of more
Awaken
Before you break down all around your wounded core

Sleep
Sleep
Sleep
Sleep
