Through all of my time
I have tasted and written out why
With worst intention for all you know, I loved not once
Have I gone grey, have I steered wrong
With what have I, stumbled upon
Through all she's done, I've called to arms
And placed my fist upon her
Fall down and see what happens when you stare too long
I'm not bound to slow down quite yet
Given the right way around this table
Laid out for you, exhausting
How many reason, one couldn't help
Shed those clothes of yours
Now is the time when
I know your much better off in dreams
Where fiction plays the strings of you
And truth provokes your wounds
I haven't the heart to wake you up
So sleep, sleep, sleep
