Go to Sleep Lyrics

Intro Riff
horus
Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man
Wipe the blood from your face and your hands
Forgive yourself if you think you can
Go to sleep, go to sleep my man
Intro Riff
Twenty-one days lost at sea I fought
For twenty-two years non-stop I've talked
Through the desert, p**sed drunk, and confused I walked
I spit a tooth in the palm of my hand
horus
Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man
Wipe the blood from your face and your hands
Forgive yourself if you think you can
Go to sleep, go to sleep my man
Well the wind and the trees are ganging up on me
They sing my funeral song in harmony
Well I just want to walk home unaccompanied
But they keep singing they keep singing they keep singing
they keep singing they keep singing and singing to me
ridge with Intro Riff
La, La, La, La, La, La (Singing to me)
La, La, La, La, La, La (I hear them singing)
La, La, La, La, La, La (Oh!)
Well I wish things were different, true, and deep
But everything that's so shallow is everything about me
You know they told me I could just take my money and leave
I hope the people on the ground will understand
I hope the people in the crowd will understand
horus
Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man
Wipe the blood from your face and your hands
Forgive yourself if you think you can
Go to sleep, go to sleep my man (La, La)
Go to sleep, go to sleep my man (La, La)
Go to sleep, go to sleep my man
