Churchyard Sleep
The bedroom curtain's drawn Feels like it won't be long
Till mirrors will be covered
And Stillness falls upon this room If sitting next to you
Is all that I could do
Then I would sit forever
I swear that I would never move
Dusk is peaking thru the window
The night is promising a calm Even as I hang my head low
You'll finally be where you belong
And while the hours leave
It's the soul you keep
As you fall into a churchyard sleep
Go on rest your eyes
This is not goodbye
just a passing moment
All your work here is done
But while your still awake
Of all the words you'll take Hold onto to forgiveness
That is what you will become
Dusk is peaking thru the window
The night is promising a calm
Even as I hang my head low
You'll finally be where you belong
And while the hours leave
It's the soul you keep
As you fall into the churchyard sleep
Till mirrors will be covered
And Stillness falls upon this room If sitting next to you
Is all that I could do
Then I would sit forever
I swear that I would never move
Dusk is peaking thru the window
The night is promising a calm Even as I hang my head low
You'll finally be where you belong
And while the hours leave
It's the soul you keep
As you fall into a churchyard sleep
Go on rest your eyes
This is not goodbye
just a passing moment
All your work here is done
But while your still awake
Of all the words you'll take Hold onto to forgiveness
That is what you will become
Dusk is peaking thru the window
The night is promising a calm
Even as I hang my head low
You'll finally be where you belong
And while the hours leave
It's the soul you keep
As you fall into the churchyard sleep
