If You Sleep — Tal Bachman

Figure of divine perfection

No ones loved with more affection

Soul to soul weve breathed

Oh I wont let the fates succeed

Worried hours of contemplation

Whispered bits of conversation

Unaffected orderlies

Disinfected rooms and hallways

And if you sleep you sleep with god

And if I cry its for my heart

Why should I hope to make it through

cause if you sleep Ill sleep too

Jagged thorns and pretty petals

Butterflies and stinging nettles

Sunny days and nights of blackness

But wheres the joy to cure my sadness

Chorus

Gleaming cars and covered faces

Teary eyes in hallowed places

Grass and granite stone

No ones been more all alone

Chorus
