Armor For Sleep Album

Instrumental

It's funny how things work out,
The ones we need don't know we're there,
If I were sand and you were oceans,
The moon would be why you're pulled to me.

I wake up and think dreams are real,
I sleep so I don't have to feel,
The truth that you can't ever be,
The one person that won't ever forget me.

I hope that dreams come when I die,
So we can talk,
I won't wake up,
I'll ask you how your life worked out.

I'll never know that I'm just dreaming,
I wake up and think dreams are real,
I sleep so I don't have to feel,
The truth that you can't ever be,
The one person that won't ever forget me.

Let me sleep some more.

I'll find a cave for you,
For you to run to,
Nothing can break through stone,
You'll sleep through winter.

You'll never feel the cold,
Years will be all warm,
You'll bury yourself when you've had enough,
And the world will think that you've just run off.
But I'll always know how you chose to go,
Inside your stone world where winter is broken,

If I could build for you,
A magic retreat from,
Seasons that break you moods,
Trust me I live to.

You'll never feel the cold,
Years will be all warm,
You'll bury yourself when you've had enough,
And the world will think that you've just run off.
But I'll always know how you chose to go,
Inside your stone world where winter is broken,

Trust me I would build for you,
A world for you. (2x)

You'll never feel the cold,
Years will be all warm,
You'll bury yourself when you've had enough,
And the world will think that you've just run off.
But I'll always know how you chose to go,
Inside your stone world where winter is broken

Pull your arms up around your knees,
And hide out inside your room,
Pretend you can't feel at all,
Just realize that I know how, you feel now.

If all I am is distraction for you then I can't complain,
That you can't feel something for me,
Take all you can find in me,
Can you think back to when things worked?

When dreams were the days you lived,
When you never cried alone,
Just realize that I know how, you feel now.

If all I am is distraction for you then I can't complain,
That you can't feel something for me,
Take all you can find in me.

Streetlights look like ribs on my block,
I can forget,
Where I am now,
Smiling as I pass some parked cars.

I can forget,
Where I am and,
Run through my town,
Scream till I faint,
Stumble around,
Scare kids away,
Worn out I'll be,
Asleep on the street,
Watch my whole town,
Attempt to wake me,
Sidewalks lend their backs to my feet...

I can forget,
Where I am now,
Houses shut their lights as I pass...

I can forget,
Where I am and,
Run through my town,
Scream till I faint,
Stumble around,
Scare kids away,
Worn out I'll be,
Asleep on the street,
Watch my whole town,
Attempt to wake me.

This is the end,
Of rotting away,
In the back seat.

This is the end,
Of keeping it in,
They'll all know how I feel.

I can speak when I want to,
Employ my voice till it burns,
Through the core of my own throat,
Speak until the demand's gone.

You should be downstairs with them,
You're wasting your time again,
Listen, I'm fine now,
I don't want to talk right now,
Thank you for your concern.

I can speak till the world ends,
To make up for all that I left out,
I'll register with the wanderer's guild,
And be a nomad with a billion words.

You should be downstairs with them,
You're wasting your time again,
Listen, I'm fine now,
I don't want to talk right now,
Thank you for your concern.

Air conditioning you can stay quiet all night.

I'll be by the front door,
We'll leave when you want,
You're having a good time,
And you know me,
I'll wait around.

I'm standing outside now,
No one's around,
It's so cold my lips are numb,
I'll sit on the front steps,
And wonder if I will completely freeze out here.

I hear you from inside,
You're laughing the way,
You do when I'm not there,
And you know me,
I'll wait around.

I'm standing outside now,
No one's around,
It's so cold my lips are numb,
I'll sit on the front steps,
And wonder if I will completely freeze out here.

I think,
That maybe I should get up and just drive away,
I'm shivering hard now, shivering hard now
My face,
Has barely any feeling left anymore,
I'm shivering hard now, shivering hard now

I'm standing outside now,
No one's around,
It's so cold my lips are numb,
I'll sit on the front steps,
And wonder if I will completely freeze out here.

I'm standing outside now,
No one's around,
It's so cold my lips are numb,
I'll sit on the front steps,
And wonder if I will completely freeze out here.

Tonight at twelve we change ourselves,
Forget this world we know,
Transparent we'll be,
Invisible so they won't see.

Our hearts beat,
We won't hurt a thing,
We just want to haunt this house,
At least for now.

Watch us change,
Kill the light,
Phantoms now,
Dead tonight.

You'll be a ghost,
I'll be your dream,
You'll float through me,
I'll disappear.

We'll stay in this room,
Sit still and enjoy the calm we've become,
We'll fall down the stairs,
Nothing can support us now,
We're not here.

Watch us change,
Kill the light,
Phantoms now,
Dead tonight.

You'll be a ghost,
I'll be your dream,
You'll float through me,
I'll disappear,
We're not here.

You appear like raindrops,
And leave like you sink through,
The streets that you fall on,
The cars that slip on you.

All of this,
For just one night,
Suffocate me all you need,
I won't breathe but it's okay,
You'll be somewhere around me,
And I won't need air.

The clouds will break my house,
And throw me from my room,
I'll drown in the rainfall,
And float till I find you.

You appear like raindrops,
And leave like you sink through,
The streets that you fall on,
The cars that slip on you.

All of this,
For just one night,
Suffocate me all you need,
I won't breathe but it's okay,
You'll be somewhere around me,
And I won't need air,
And I won't need air.

Can I just be something
Somewhere in your room
That you won't notice

Maybe I'll be paper
Or books thrown on your floor
Move me when you want to
I'll live where you put me
In your VCR
If I become a cassette
Or on top of your computer
If that's where I would fit
Then so be it

But things can't be perfect
All the time
That I know
Sometimes we just have to let some things go

I will not say one word
I'll just hang around
I won't annoy you at all
When you move out I'll stay
Until I'm thrown away
But then it won't matter

Things can't be perfect
All the time
That I know
Sometimes we just have to let some things go

Because things can't be perfect
All the time
That I know
Sometimes we just have to let some things go

I promise to stop now, to stop now
I promise to stop now, to stop now

But things can't be perfect
All the time
That I know
Sometimes we just have to let some things go

Things can't be perfect
All the time
That I know
Sometimes we just have to let some things go

Letting go is my life
I'll be on my way...

Watch me point to the sky
You laugh and say I’ll never fly
I smile as you walk away
I always knew I couldn’t stay

Full throttle now
The Milky Way can’t wait
Full throttle now
The Milky Way can’t wait
Diners turn into spaceports
And I rocket past the moon
Say your goodbyes now
I’ll be in the wormhole soon

This planet wasn’t made for me
All of you live so easy
I lay outside and up I stare
My home is in the void up there

Full throttle now
The Milky Way can’t wait
Full throttle now
The Milky Way can’t wait
Time has turned into spaceports
And I rocket past the moon
Say your goodbyes now
I’ll be in the wormhole soon

Approach light speed
And break apart
I don’t care now
Nothing’s real somehow

Time has turned into spaceports
And I rocket past the moon
Say your goodbyes now
I’ll be in the wormhole soon

And you can't deny,
That I'll be the one mistake,
You carry forever,
And you can't pretend now,
That you thought I'd forget,
To notice you weren't gone.

But the truth is,
It's pointless,
I'll make my own world somehow,
Where I control who stays.

You won't leave because you,
Won't know how to run away,
I'll make you care that I am,
Running here without you.

I'll make you care,
I'll make you care,
And you can't escape that,
I'm in your dreams.

But you swim in mine,
And you'll live your whole life dreaming,
Your dreams will,
Be free of me.

But the truth is,
It's pointless,
I'll make my own world somehow,
Where I control who stays.

You won't leave because you,
Won't know how to run away,
I'll make you care that I am,
Running here without you.

I'll make you care,
I'll make you care,
And the truth is,
It's pointless.

You don't care,
But the truth is,
It's pointless,
You don't care.

You don't care (you don't care)
But the truth is it's pointless,
You don't care (you don't care)
But the truth is it's pointless
You don't care (you don't care)
You don't care (you don't care)
You don't care.
