Sleep Lyrics by Tim De Cotta

2017

Sometimes I find myself awake in the middle of the night
My mind, so much it gotta eat but this sleep it gotta fight
Warp tunnel it wanders through the darkness moving at the speed of light
Don’t wanna come back into me just remaining out of sight

Bounce off the walls into the fabric of my ever restless mind
Moving and moving never stopping God knows what it’s tryina find
Every inch of morning is creeping now I’m running out of time
Ain’t no solution but the obvious to this slow decay of mine
So I…

Chorus
Sleeeeeppppp
(My body bargains with it)
Sleeeeepppppp

But my mind says no, “GO!”

Sometimes I wonder if it’s permanent no end this I see
What is this demon in my mind lurking deep inside of me?
Parallel existence ain’t no legend when it happens easily
Who is this being I have captured is this person really me?

Sunrise the birds they cry out murder as the darkness fades away
Enter the day so much to do but now my soul has gone astray
No choice I got to get it back now gotta try every way
Go back to slumber ain’t no number on the price I’ve gotta pay

(Chorus)

(weish)
Your world is only as big as the edges of your mind

I’m wasting away…
