Lyrics Sleep Away - Bob Acri

Sleep Away

A blackout in the room again
A busted lip and broken skin
I wake up in the bathroom
And dare not bother asking
Why the mirror’s craked and all I see
Are shards of glass inside of me
There’s voices there to dare me
My father’s here to scare me
My mother sits beyond the door she’s
Curled up crying on the floor
Look at what her son’s done
When the weight of all the world’s gone wrong
It’s gone wrong again
Gone fucking wrong
It’s gone wrong again
Well liars they leave a guilty trail
And let me tell you something people
I’ve been lying for fucking years
That must be why I’m standing in this space
Disregarding that I’ve created these monsters
They’re on fucking both of my sides
So I wipe the blood from both of their eyes
From all four of their eyes
And while I wait for wounds to heal
I see you by the window sil
Your heart’s torn out
A plastic spoon
When honesty lit up that room
So I stole the pillowcase to clean
This mess I’ve made of someones dream
Now you’ve seen what I’ve done
When the weight of all the world’s gone wrong
It’s gone wrong again
Gone fucking wrong
It’s gone all wrong again
This room is old and wise
I fall onto the bed and wonder
«How did I get here?»
The little boy who would argue with a tree
Just fucking thump his head
And he’ll turn back to normal
Now why is that what I see?
Don’t bother trusting
Don’t bother waiting
Don’t bother changing things that won’t give into changing
Just let me go away
I’m packed
Whenever
I’m down
Whenever
