Lyrics for Sleep Through The Long Night
I'm stale as the daylight In photos of still lives And grave as the bread That was left with no twist tie My eye is the smooth side Of magazine advertisements I want what I can't buy I buy any true lie I lie with my hands tied And try to sleep at night Lay me to bed Under canopy tree lines My mind is a jungle Of sirens and stoplights The traffic is static No station to heaven I'm heavy as plastic In the belly Atlantic I want what I can't find I find what I can't hide I hide until it's time To sleep through the long night
