Victory is won in sleep alone, so why do you wake?
When waking only paints you as a number in a file in a desk somewhere?
So, rest your weary eyes and toast with the gods tonight.
Shut them out as they cluck their thick tongues and shake their heads and suggest,
Oh so very delicately, about properness and procedures and protocols.
Just shut them out.
I listened to their cheerful words and now I'm more ashamed than alive.
So, pull me out and I'll lift you up and we can take them all away together.
But, without that all of this is hopeless, so just shut them out.
So that your voice can be in key as we sing each other to our final sleep.
Sing me to sleep and I'll sing you to sleep.
But who am I kidding?
Maybe there aren't any stars in the sky to look up to as I close my eyes at night.
But I just need someone to believe in me, so I'll believe in you
and turn my back on every lie that's ever been told to me
to tell you that I am proud and I am here
and I am with you in equal measures as I am with myself.
