Sound-A-Sleep Lyrics

[00:00.32] Close your eyes and you will see
[00:08.96] Micro flashing neon lights
[00:17.83] Open your eyes and you will see
[00:26.02] It still looks like the same thing
[00:34.64] Lie and wait for sleep and listen to
[00:44.71] Your heartbeat too fast for sleep
[00:51.50] Close your eyes and you will see the sound-a-sleep
[01:07.71] I want to go, I want to go
[01:14.92] I want to go down, to go to sleep
[01:23.93] Your frame of reference is my swimming pool
[01:40.59] My, my swimming pool still looks like the China Sea
[01:57.58] Pool to sea and finally the sound-a-sleep
[02:12.62]
[02:46.67] Feel the muscles in your face, twitch, relax
[03:00.35] Remembering everything that went down and will go down
[03:14.90] I want to go down to sleep
[03:22.63] Insomnia, no sleep, disease, pennies, parking, feed me please
[03:39.64] Lie and wait for sleep and listen
[03:48.47] To your heartbeat too fast for sleep
[04:00.19]
