Sleep
seven months on her own, a new life on the way
her mom gone too early, advice come too late
the churches were full, so i guess he ain't saving nobody
and he cried every night, just like babies'll do
to say 'hey mom, please wake up, i'm counting on you'
'what a shame' friends would say, 'we thought she'd end up being a doctor'
ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
than being someone else's dream
ooh and i wonder what this life should be
lately all i need's just a little more sleep
you dance back and forth, between rhythm and blues
it was brave or just stupid, but to tell you the truth,
if there was a difference, i guess i never knew what it was
it was reds in the morning and three blues at night
they said feeling sedated meant feeling all right
and if something's been wrong, i guess this is the light in the tunnel
ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
than feeling nothing constantly
ooh and i wonder what this life should be
lately all i need's just a little more sleep
sometimes it's to wake up and some to forget
the chemical answers all the questions i have
i know i don't need it, i just don't know where i'd be without it
ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
than being someone else's dream
ooh and i wonder what this life should be
lately all i need's just a little more sleep,
just a little more
her mom gone too early, advice come too late
the churches were full, so i guess he ain't saving nobody
and he cried every night, just like babies'll do
to say 'hey mom, please wake up, i'm counting on you'
'what a shame' friends would say, 'we thought she'd end up being a doctor'
ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
than being someone else's dream
ooh and i wonder what this life should be
lately all i need's just a little more sleep
you dance back and forth, between rhythm and blues
it was brave or just stupid, but to tell you the truth,
if there was a difference, i guess i never knew what it was
it was reds in the morning and three blues at night
they said feeling sedated meant feeling all right
and if something's been wrong, i guess this is the light in the tunnel
ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
than feeling nothing constantly
ooh and i wonder what this life should be
lately all i need's just a little more sleep
sometimes it's to wake up and some to forget
the chemical answers all the questions i have
i know i don't need it, i just don't know where i'd be without it
ooh and i wonder if this life should be lived for greater purpose
than being someone else's dream
ooh and i wonder what this life should be
lately all i need's just a little more sleep,
just a little more
