I lay on the floor
They asked me what I do tonight
It answers
Search for the moon
No, don't follow him
Swallow him, swallow em
Swallow it
I swear, I will be good to you
I swear, I will be good to you
I swear, I will be
I will be
Time come hold me back
I'll dream of what I've dreamed of
And I dream of what I call love
They asked me what I do tonight
It answers
Search for the moon
Swallow him, swallow em
Swallow it
I swear, I will be good to you
I swear, I will be
I will be
I'll dream of what I've dreamed of
And I dream of what I call love

I think this song about Endymion from his point of view. The reason it's called Sleep is because Hypnos (Sleep) granted Endymion eternal sleep with his eyes open so that he may see his love Selene (the moon goddess) forever also because Hypnos found him to be so beautiful he wished his eyes to be open so he might fully appreciate his beauty. Selene also wished him to sleep forever, she loved the way he looked while he slept and wanted him to stay young forever.
I lay on the floor They asked me what I do tonight It answers Search for the moon (he lays on the floor of the cave in Mt. Latmus, he searches for the moon aka Selene)
No, don't follow him Swallow him, swallow em Swallow it (His fear of losing her to another lover)
I swear, I will be good to you I swear, I will be good to you I swear, I will be I will be (He says this as he falls asleep)
Time come hold me back I'll dream of what I've dreamed of And I dream of what I call love (He'll never grow old. He'll dream of his love, Selene)
beautiful
Time come hold me back I'll dream of what I've dreamed of
