Lyrics

[00:33.86] As I finally meet my end
[00:36.55] I won't be scared, I won't defend
[00:39.74] The things I've done
[00:42.86] I don't need him like you do
[00:46.36] I don't fear him like you do
[00:50.17] As the world revolves the sun
[00:52.86] I hope the light that I become can
[00:56.86] Sleep for once
[00:59.61] I will leave it like you do
[01:02.74] I won't lead it like you do
[01:05.99] I won't leave it like they do
[01:09.25] I don't need him like they do
[01:16.20]
[01:21.09] I just want to sleep forever
[01:23.15] Never see tomorrow
[01:27.97] Or lead or follow
[01:31.71] I don't want to work forever
[01:38.31] Know what I know
[01:40.63] Or beg or borrow
[01:43.93] Just like our mothers
[01:47.25] Who gave us our homes
[01:50.70] We'll be just like our fathers
[01:53.52] And go out on their own
[01:56.64] 'Cause we are the colors
[02:00.02] Of all that you see
[02:03.39] We'll be just like our brothers
[02:07.40] And take to the streets
[02:10.27] Take to the streets
[02:15.52] I just want to sleep forever
[02:20.65] Never see tomorrow
[02:24.21] Lead or follow
[02:27.99]
[02:45.91] As my world it hides behind
[02:48.03] The words only your wars define
[02:49.54] They read a lot like news
[02:52.28] But I fear it more than you
[02:56.13] I fear it more than you
[03:05.63] I just want to sleep forever
[03:10.75] Never see tomorrow
[03:13.46] Or lead or follow
[03:15.87] I don't want to work forever
[03:24.18] Know what I know
[03:26.43] Or beg or borrow
[03:30.18] Just like old lovers
[03:32.96] Who never leave home
[03:36.56] We'll forget the city
[03:39.49] And forget the roads
[03:43.00] 'Cause we are all rebels
[03:46.19] Never do what we're told
[03:49.57] We may not grow money
[03:52.76] But man we grow old
[03:56.19] Man we grow old
[03:59.51]
[04:55.54] I just want to sleep forever
[04:59.35] Never see tomorrow
[05:02.61] Or lead or follow
[05:07.29] I don't want to work forever
[05:12.61] Know what I know
[05:15.60] Or beg or borrow
[05:19.85] Just like our mothers
[05:22.23] Who gave us our homes
[05:25.54] We'll be just like our fathers
[05:28.55] And go out on our own
[05:32.05] 'Cause we are the colors
[05:35.09] In all that you see
[05:38.53] We'll be just like our brothers
[05:41.70] And take to the streets
[05:45.32] 'Cause we are all children
[05:48.51] Yeah, we are all man
[05:52.20] It may not be much
[05:55.01] But we do what we can
[05:58.63] Don't need no preacher
[06:01.82] To make us believe
[06:05.07] That everything's perfectly
[06:08.39] Fucked up like me
