Sleep

Intro:
   
   

Verse 1:

             
Hear your heartbeat
                
Beat a frantic pace
                   
And it's not even seven AM


                  
You're feeling the rush
                
of anguish settling
                      
You cannot help showing them in.

Bridge 1:

            
Hurry up then
                          
Or you'll fall behind and  
                   
They will take control of you

               
And you need to heal
                      
The hurt behind your eyes
               
Fickle words crowding your mind

So

Chorus:
                     
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in,
                                
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within 
                        
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in,
                 
And carry you over to a new morning

Verse 2:

         
Try as you might
                   
You try to give it up
              
Seems to be holding on fast

                
It's hand in your hand
               
A shadow over your
                                 
A beggar for soul in your face

Bridge 2:
                 
Still it don't matter
                 
If you won't listen
                       
If you won't let them follow you

                 
You just need to heal
                    
Make good all your lies
             
Move on and don't look behind

Chorus:
                     
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in,
                                
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within 
                        
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in,
                 
And carry you over to a new morning

(Now the rhythm gets a bit different. Just listen to the song and you´ll figure it out somehow^^)

        
Day after day
          
Fickle visions
                
Messing with your head
          
Fickle, vicious
               
Sleeping in your bed
                  
Messing with your head
        
Fickle visions
           
Fickle, vicious 

Instrumental Break:
   
   

Chorus:
                     
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in,
                                
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within 
                        
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in,
                 
And carry you over to a new morning
