Lyrics

Please sleep my darling sleep

Please rest peacefully, my beloved.

Your cry for inspiration never reaches ears on distant stars

Your plea for inspiration goes unheard in the vastness of space.

And every night our lonely planet slide across the universe

Each night, our lonely planet moves through the universe.

And I won't pretend I understand

I won't pretend to fully comprehend.


Please sleep my darling sleep

Again, urging for peaceful sleep.

Your death by information

Your demise due to information overload.

Won't disturb the peace on distant stars

It won't disrupt the tranquility in the cosmos.

And even when you lock the doors

Even when you isolate yourself and conceal behind darkened windows.

And slide behind the unlit shades

Shutting yourself off from the world.

None of us are strangers anymore

We are no longer unfamiliar to each other.


So fall asleep with the windows open

Encouraging sleep with openness to the world.

Come to me with the worst you've said and done

Come to me with your worst confessions and actions.

You'll close your eyes and see me

Close your eyes, and you'll envision me.

A little death makes life more meaningful

A metaphorical death adds significance to life.

I stand no chance at all

I have no chance of success.


Please sleep my darling sleep

Once again, urging for peaceful sleep.

Your car crash in slow motion

Your life's upheavals won't disrupt the cosmic order.

Won't upset the pace on distant stars

A metaphorical car crash in slow motion.

And one by one the years of our lives

The years of our lives pass by one by one.

Stumble as the moments pa**

Stumbling as the moments unfold.

So please hold on

An earnest plea to hold on.

Please hold on

Reiterating the plea to hold on.


So fall asleep with the windows open

Encouraging sleep with openness to the world (repeated).

Come to me with the worst you've said and done

Come to me with your worst confessions and actions (repeated).

You'll close your eyes and see me

Close your eyes, and you'll envision me (repeated).

A little death makes life more meaningful

A metaphorical death adds significance to life (repeated).

I stand no chance at all

I have no chance of success (repeated).


Please sleep my darling sleep

Once again, urging for peaceful sleep (repeated).
