What Do I Get — Sleep On It lyrics

Lyrics

Watch the places get smaller, see them all duck and crawl in
Into spots that aren’t callin', not crying out to find a name
Just places staying open, kinder than a sore
But a sore just the same
Don’t tell anyone about the weight pressing hard on your tongue
Sleep’s getting less easy, dreams coming and leaving have gone
Watch the pictures get sharper, see the lines bend and twist in
Into shapes that aren’t taking, not trying hard to fit a frame
Just figures eyeing something, kinder than a war
But a war just the same
Don’t tell anyone about the weight pressing hard on your tongue
Sleep’s getting less easy, dreams coming and leaving have gone
