Rest Lyrics
Oh you called me gold
You held me so hard that your hands were glowing
Oh and then you called me spent
All of your riches and you know nothing of keeping them
Oh drink, oh knife
The mirror stands true to you all through the night
Do not dare to call me dawn
I turned down the lights and the stage you're singing on
Oh sleep, oh rest
Rise lungs, rise chest
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Fall stomach, fall breath
Oh sleep, old friend
Rise tongue, rise breath
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Fall stomach, fall chest
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Rise lungs, rise breath
Oh sleep, old friend
Fall tongue, fall chest
Oh sleep, oh rest
Rise lungs, rise breath
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Fall stomach, fall chest
Oh sweet, old friend
Fall stomach, fall chest
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Fall lungs, fall breath
Oh sweet, oh forgive
Fall tongue, fall breath
Oh sweet, old friend
Rise, the end, forgive the rest
You held me so hard that your hands were glowing
Oh and then you called me spent
All of your riches and you know nothing of keeping them
The mirror stands true to you all through the night
Do not dare to call me dawn
I turned down the lights and the stage you're singing on
Rise lungs, rise chest
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Fall stomach, fall breath
Oh sleep, old friend
Rise tongue, rise breath
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Fall stomach, fall chest
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Rise lungs, rise breath
Oh sleep, old friend
Fall tongue, fall chest
Oh sleep, oh rest
Rise lungs, rise breath
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Fall stomach, fall chest
Oh sweet, old friend
Fall stomach, fall chest
Oh sleep, oh forgive
Fall lungs, fall breath
Oh sweet, oh forgive
Fall tongue, fall breath
Oh sweet, old friend
Rise, the end, forgive the rest

I'm not sure about these. Any help is appreciated. When she first starts singing "Oh forgive," I thought she was saying "forget"... but I decided she was probably just singing the same thing all the way through...
