Poets of the Fall
Sleep
[Verse 1]
Hear your heartbeat beat a frantic pace
And it's not even seven AM
You're feeling the rush of anguish settling
You cannot help showing them in
So hurry up then or you'll fall behind and
They will take control of you
And you need to heal the hurt behind your eyes
Fickle words crowding your mind

[Chorus]
So, sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in
And carry you over to a new morning

[Verse 2]
Try as you might, you try to give it up
Seems to be holding on fast
Its hand in your hand, a shadow over you
A beggar for soul in your face
Still it don't matter if you won't listen
If you won't let it follow you
You just need to heal, make good all your lies
Move on and don't look behind
[Chorus]
So, sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in
And carry you over to a new morning

[Bridge]
Day after day
Fickle visions
Messing with your head
Fickle, vicious
Sleeping in your bed
Messing with your head
Fickle visions
Fickle, vicious

[Chorus]
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in
And carry you over to a new morning
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in
And carry you over to a new morning
