Sleep With Me

[Daddy Bear]

I don't see redemption in suffering

I don't see redemption at all

And my arms weigh a ton

After hoisting the sun

And I can't help but let the night fall

 

But you'll see, if you give it some pondering

That we're of the fortunate few

Who have danced on the stars

And been smothered in scars

And there's no other story so epic and true

 

So, goodnight now

No goodbyes

In the gathering dusk you'll hear one of my lullabies

The dark may be long

But we still have this song

And I'll sing it 'til every tear dries

Time to lie down

Close our eyes

Acknowledge the black but refuse it to paralyze

Then tomorrow we'll stand

And uniting our hands

We can lift the sun back to the skies

 

For now I'll accept that we're faltering

I'm tired, discouraged and sore

And I know you are, too

But I'm thinking of you

And a life that could be so much more

 

So I hope you'll assert your autonomy

Seizing control of your time

'Cause I know once you've freed yourself

You might concede yourself

Wanting that lonely heart beating with mine

 

So, goodnight now

No goodbyes

In the gathering dusk you'll hear one of my lullabies

The dark may be long

But we still have this song

And I'll sing it 'til every tear dries

Time to lie down

Close our eyes

Acknowledge the black but refuse it to paralyze

A new day can come

If we will it as one

So, goodnight now, goodnight, no goodbyes

[Jeen]

I love it.

 

 

Thanks.
