Gentlemen (Go To Sleep) Lyrics
They say that time is
The tragedy slowly crawling on
While oh so hastily
Shutting us down one by one
If you can, if you can't
Sleep in that bed that you've made
You should know that I feel the same
After all these days
I've stretched all the letters
So maybe you'll see it better
Close your mouth, don't let
The bad things go deep into your lungs
If I could unhinge my jaw
And swallow you whole, you know I would
For you
If you can't, if you can
Sleep in that bed that you've made
You should know that I feel the same
Love always
If you can, if you can't
Sleep in that bed that you've made
You should know that I feel the same
Love always
I've stretched all the letters
So maybe you'll see it better
If you can, if you can't
Sleep in that bed that you've made
You should know that I feel the same
Love always
The tragedy slowly crawling on
While oh so hastily
Shutting us down one by one
Sleep in that bed that you've made
You should know that I feel the same
After all these days
So maybe you'll see it better
The bad things go deep into your lungs
If I could unhinge my jaw
And swallow you whole, you know I would
For you
Sleep in that bed that you've made
You should know that I feel the same
Love always
Sleep in that bed that you've made
You should know that I feel the same
Love always
So maybe you'll see it better
Sleep in that bed that you've made
You should know that I feel the same
Love always

Love, falling apart is the subject. She's put herself in a position she can't handle, he wants her to know he can't handle it either.
"Close your mouth, don't let The bad things go deep into your lungs If I could unhinge my jaw And swallow you whole, you know I would For you"
He doesn't wan't her to become what they want her to be. He wants her to stay herself, and he tells her that If he could, he would let his life revolve around her.
"I've stretched all the letters So maybe you'll see it better"
He's tried to explain the best he could.
