As I finally meet my end
|
I won't be scared, I won't defend
|
The things I've done
|
I don't need him like you do
|
I don't fear him like you do
|
|
As the world revolves the sun
|
I hope the light that I become can
|
Sleep for once
|
I will leave it like you do
|
I won't lead it like you do
|
I won't leave it like they do
|
I don't need him like they do
|
|
I just want to sleep forever
|
Never see tomorrow
|
Or lead or follow
|
I don't want to work forever
|
Know what I know
|
Or beg or borrow
|
|
Just like our mothers
|
Who gave us our homes
|
We'll be just like our fathers
|
And go out on their own
|
'Cause we are the colors
|
Of all that you see
|
We'll be just like our brothers
|
And take to the streets
|
Take to the streets
|
|
I just want to sleep forever
|
Never see tomorrow
|
Lead or follow
|
|
As my world it hides behind
|
The words only your wars define
|
They read a lot like news
|
But I fear it more than you
|
I fear it more than you
|
|
I just want to sleep forever
|
Never see tomorrow
|
Or lead or follow
|
I don't want to work forever
|
Know what I know
|
Or beg or borrow
|
|
Just like old lovers
|
Who never leave home
|
We'll forget the city
|
And forget the roads
|
'Cause we are all rebels
|
Never do what we're told
|
We may not grow money
|
But man we grow old
|
Man we grow old
|
|
I just want to sleep forever
|
Never see tomorrow
|
Or lead or follow
|
I don't want to work forever
|
Know what I know
|
Or beg or borrow
|
|
Just like our mothers
|
Who gave us our homes
|
We'll be just like our fathers
|
And go out on our own
|
'Cause we are the colors
|
In all that you see
|
We'll be just like our brothers
|
And take to the streets
|
|
'Cause we are all children
|
Yeah, we are all man
|
It may not be much
|
But we do what we can
|
Don't need no preacher
|
To make us believe
|
That everything's perfectly
|
Fucked up like me
|
|

Sleep Forever
