lyrics
This cool cold ribbon cuts the skin
No need for scissors cause it’s the shit I’m in
This world's a wasting while I’m living in sin
I’ll take what I can get cause it’s the shit I’m in
Longing for sleep
My tears fall down like daggers
On all of those who preach
Oh how I long for the great sleep
This cool cold ribbon runs me thin
It takes a small breeze to break me in
My body oh my body is wasting in sin
I’ll take what I can get cause it’s the shit I’m in
Longing for sleep
I writhe amongst the blind
Righteous ignorant sheep
Oh how I long for the great sleep
Honey, there was a time when I didn’t fear the coffin
There was a time when I thought it was the best place for a rest
And there was a time I didn’t fear “nothing” honey
Because it was the void I did so behest
Longing for sleep
My tears fall down like daggers
On all of those who preach
Oh how I long for the great sleep
