Lyrics The Great Sleep - Matisse

The Great Sleep

You say that people change
That things may come between us
But anyway we can work it out
You say that times are hard so
We should be close together
And kill off bad thoughts from the start
I had a dream last night where
I think I was a human
Killing kittens just for fun
I was a man and master
A strange kind of life where
I was too scared to walk on hind legs
Now sleep
Never suspected
We grew up infected
Now sleep
Never affected
We grew up so small
They say that people change
That things may come between us
But there must be a way to work it out
Before we relapse once more
We can close our eyes and wait for
A sleep of guileless dreams to die for
So, honey we’re never gonna wake up
