Sleep long sleep well Only to awake in hell Sleep long sleep well (sleep well) Only to awake in hell
Today I saw a man asleep In a doorway on the street Walls of sheltered inhibition I perceived his condition Dying of hunger and exposure, Food and shelter Two blocks over Within this place We breed and dwell in We've created living hell
Sleep long sleep well Only to awake in hell (lets go) Sleep long sleep well Only to awake in hell
City sleeps and pigeons flutter Vagrant dies in the gutter Prideless death somehow befitting To life spent working on forgetting Riding on the bus I looked outside and thought about death Passing cars the only tribute to his gasping final breath
Sleep long sleep well (sleep well) Only to awake in hell Sleep long sleep well (sleep well) Only to awake in hell
(Then I went home to get my mind off things I decided to watch television)
Constant subliminal brain immersion Subconscious death wish coercion Buy and consume and want and need Never fall from the trap of greed
(listen up) Sleep long, sleep light, sleep well
I thought about the bitter pain Of jail cells and falling rain I thought ahead and looked away What can you do anyway In sheltered youth And our Pretension Avert our eyes to divert attention Only to see the avatars always there to remind us
Sleep long sleep well Only to awake in hell Sleep long sleep well Only to awake in hell
