Sleeping Pills

from The Path That Sadness Paved by Future Talk

/

lyrics

I fear not the dark but the daylight
I feel free from these bones at night.
I poured all of my wealth into the wishing well
Hoped for the world I see when I close my eyes

And you fade out like a breath on a window pane,
Now you barely answer to your name

In your sleep
You’ve been holding on too long
(You’re barely holding on)
In your dreams
The only place you feel you belong.
You belong.

I feel like I’m trapped on the outside
I am free in this cage of mine
I buried myself inside a living hell
Get me out of this world I see when I close my eyes

You bathed in rivers of your misery
You drown in it’s water.
But I search for you through the deepest black
In hope that it will bring you back

In your sleep
You’ve been holding on too long
(You’re barely holding on)
In your dreams
The only place you feel you belong.
You belong

It took your mind, it took my friend
And led you astray
And I can’t bear to watch you wither away.
You’re lost on a path that sadness paved
With a handful of sleeping pills
You’ll dream away the day

In your sleep
You’ve been holding on too long
(You’re barely holding on)
In your dreams
The only place you feel you belong.
You belong
