Sleep

Intro: Verse Seven months on her own a new life on the way Her mom gone too early Advice come too late The churches were full So I guess he ain't saving nobody And he cried every night Just like babies'll do To say "hey mom please wake up I'm counting on you" "What a shame" friends would say "We thought she'd end up being a doctor" (x2) Oh and I wonder if this life should be Lived for greater purpose than being someone else's dream Oh and I wonder what this life should be Lately all I need's just a little more sleep Verse You dance back and forth between rhythm and blues It was brave or it was just stupid But to tell you the truth If there was a difference I guess I never knew what it was It was red in the morning and three blues at night They said feeling sedated meant feeling all right And if somethings been wrong I guess this is the light in the tunnel Oh and I wonder if this life should be Lived for greater purpose than feeling nothing constantly Oh and I wonder what this life should be Lately all I need's just a little more sleep Interlude Verse Sometimes it's to wake up And some to forget The chemical answer to all the questions I have And I know I don't need it I just don't know where I'd be without it Oh and I wonder if this life should be Lived for greater purpose than being someone else's dream Oh and I wonder what this life should be Lately all I need is a little more sleep N.C. Just a little more
