about

Taken from the "Sing Me to Sleep" EP

lyrics

I stayed up all night
And tried to find new ways
To tell you that I'm leaving
It's the sequel to a story that we once had
When we were still believing
That the ghosts that come to haunt us
Are bearing gifts that we will never be receiving

You already went to sleep
The smile upon your face
Means that your anger had now found a rest
But I had more things to say
I'll guess they'll dissipate
Into the morning air they'll never resurface
And by the time we will return to them
We will discover that they have been meaningless

The morning will come
Sunlight will wash my sins from under her
And we will never remember
The things we've argued for
Tomorrow
So for now I'll let sleep engulf me
And drown in dreams
That I was never able to decipher
How peaceful the sleep of monsters
Or...
