The World Won’t Sleep Lyrics by White Moth Black Butterfly

One Thousand Wings

2013

[Verse 1: Daniel Tompkins]
Patiently waiting
They never saw, never heard
The ending to this lonely world
Lonely, endless
It watched us all burn and fall
Letting light into the world
Letting light into the world
Letting light into the world
Letting light into the world
Letting light into the world
[Chorus: Daniel Tompkins & Hayley Martin]
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
(We'll be as one)
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
(We'll be as one)
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
(We'll be as one)
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
[Post-Chorus: Hayley Martin]
You let the light in
Let the light of the world
[Chorus: Daniel Tompkins & Hayley Martin]
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
(We'll be as one)
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
(We'll be as one)
[Post-Chorus 2: Daniel Tompkins]
The world will be as one
The world will be as one
[Chorus: Daniel Tompkins & Hayley Martin]
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
(We'll be as one)
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
The world won't sleep 'cause we need peace
Gotta peel our eyelids open
[Outro: Hayley Martin]
Be as one
(You let the light in)
(Let the light in)
As one
(You let the light in)
Be as one
(You let the light in)
(Let the light in)
As one
