Sweet Sleep
I don't tend to sleep so sweet
So I wish people wouldn't wish me 'sweet dreams'
As if their words alone were enough inebriation
As if the nightmares wouldn't come either way
So I guess it's nice that I don't remember half my dreams
So I guess it's nice my sleeps have been so silent
Except for the nightmares; they spring up like weather
And that changes every so often so
Well. I don't sleep well
Screw your sweet dreams, I come from nightmares
And nightmares don't rest all
