When I'm Asleep
You gotta bring the bread to the table
You gotta bring the bread on home
So you dance for the rain and the sun and the wind
And you pray for your crop to grow
And every morning 'til sundown
You work your hands to the bone
You keep your head high and your eyes wide
Diamond in your mind and you bring the bread home
But when I'm asleep, when I'm asleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
When I'm asleep, when I'm asleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
And you know I gotta win your heart, babe
You know I gotta win your love
So I promise the moon and the stars and the sea
And I pray to the gods above
With every beat, my heart's skipping
You know what I'm made of
I'll keep the light on and the bed warm
Shelter from the storm and I'm keepin' your love
But when I'm asleep, when I'm asleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
When I'm asleep, when I'm asleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
And my mouth doesn't talk back to me
And my plans don't have to be
And my back doesn't feel gravity
And my dreams go back to sleep
You know I gotta make it to heaven
You know I gotta save my soul
So I marry the Lord and I drink from the scars
And I swear off my worldly ways
And every second, a baby
Is born through his mother's bones
And torn from grace, gotta find your faith
Or the Devil's gonna claim your soul
Sleep
Sleep
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep
You gotta bring the bread on home
So you dance for the rain and the sun and the wind
And you pray for your crop to grow
And every morning 'til sundown
You work your hands to the bone
You keep your head high and your eyes wide
Diamond in your mind and you bring the bread home
But when I'm asleep, when I'm asleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
When I'm asleep, when I'm asleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
And you know I gotta win your heart, babe
You know I gotta win your love
So I promise the moon and the stars and the sea
And I pray to the gods above
With every beat, my heart's skipping
You know what I'm made of
I'll keep the light on and the bed warm
Shelter from the storm and I'm keepin' your love
But when I'm asleep, when I'm asleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
When I'm asleep, when I'm asleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
And my mouth doesn't talk back to me
And my plans don't have to be
And my back doesn't feel gravity
And my dreams go back to sleep
You know I gotta make it to heaven
You know I gotta save my soul
So I marry the Lord and I drink from the scars
And I swear off my worldly ways
And every second, a baby
Is born through his mother's bones
And torn from grace, gotta find your faith
Or the Devil's gonna claim your soul
Sleep
Sleep
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep, go back to sleep
I'm not anyone, you're not anywhere
Go back to sleep
