Sleep it Off Songtext
von Andy Mort

The baby in the corner was crying out for milk
When I said I′d none to give her, she screamed a pretty hell
I wanted to be released and
I wanted to escape
But there was no one left to police it
No one to mitigate
I'm scared about the future
I′m unprepared for what's ahead
I'm wondering what it wants from me
I might just get my head down and sleep it off instead


The fables from the fathers were tearing at the seams
The terror in the garden had been carried down the streams
We want to make it better and
We want to make it well
But when the wind falls silent
We can′t escape that pretty hell
I′m scared about the future
I'm unprepared for what′s ahead
I'm wondering what it wants from me
I might just get my head down and sleep it off instead

The conscientious hero is coming out to play
When I said I′d nothing left in me, he said I'd have to pay
He wants to end the hatred
He′s got a taste to win the war
And when he's finished with his legacy
He's coming after us all
I′m scared about the future
I′m unprepared for what's ahead
I′m wondering what it wants from me
I might just get my head down and sleep it off
I'm scared about the future
I′m unprepared for what's ahead
I′m wondering what it wants from me
I might just get my head down and sleep it off instead
