sandman’a labor

watch me tonight sandman
the ghosts will make you work
running laps
counting memories
I’ll be the judge of what comes next

you’ve got only one job
and no one’s making it easy
put me to sleep
As I sleep as I say,
"now I lay me"
beat back the darkness
and avoid my heart
tonight I would skip the dreams
enveloping myself in endless warmth
say good night or good bye
tomorrow comes too soon
