Get Your Sleep -

Coming down from the mountainside

I know, I know I got a bit skinny

What I learned on the mountainside

The good news isn’t all good today

Listen close 'cause I know

I’ve seen some things I couldn’t agree to

I’ll tell you how it’s going to be

Open wide like your very first Sunday

Think a bit more how you spend your days

Lift your head and it’ll be okay

If it seems hard, you shouldn’t mind

Come get your sleep, come on

Come get your sleep, come on

Come get your sleep, come on

Get your sleep, come on

Cast loose and switch off your noise

All you precious little girls and boys

Come down and come greet the land

From sunup on, it’s your very own Eden

Look hard, stay true

You know, you know we will never betray you

Throw down to break through

I know, I know you’re all that we made you

Net the bright fish and till the dark soil

Roll on through all your everyday toil

If it seems hard, you shouldn’t mind

Come get your sleep, come on

Come get your sleep, come on

Come get your sleep, come on

Get your sleep, come on

I wish I knew some people so I could get out of the rain

Find something to eat and some place to sleep

I am more and more sure no one’s heard a word

I am beginning to see all the things no one sees

Can’t step back that far, can’t wind down that slow

Can’t zoom in that close or turn down that low

When at night, the hand came down

All the heroes decided they’d move on

Some frozen and the rest aflame

Just as well you forget my name

If your memory don’t tip your hand

Do as you please, it’s the last you’ll be playing

Cast loose and switch off your noise

All you precious little girls and boys

Wait out the sun 'til you watch it rise

Any long night, it turns the past alive

If it seems hard, you shouldn’t mind

Come get your sleep, come on

Come get your sleep, come on

Come get your sleep, come on

Get your sleep, come on
