Sleep On It -

Watch the places get smaller, see them all duck and crawl in

Into spots that aren’t callin', not crying out to find a name

Just places staying open, kinder than a sore

But a sore just the same

Don’t tell anyone about the weight pressing hard on your tongue

Sleep’s getting less easy, dreams coming and leaving have gone

Watch the pictures get sharper, see the lines bend and twist in

Into shapes that aren’t taking, not trying hard to fit a frame

Just figures eyeing something, kinder than a war

But a war just the same

Don’t tell anyone about the weight pressing hard on your tongue

Sleep’s getting less easy, dreams coming and leaving have gone
