Sleep for Tonight Lyrics
You've got me kickin' like a runaway
Captured by shackles, bred by own dismay
Take it back, broke a bone, I'm alone, got a wing-tapped tone, gotta go prone, because
You've got me kickin' like a runaway
We're just ten steps away from nowhere
Ten steps away from getting back home
Ten steps away from progress
Ten steps away from passing the test
'Cause I tried to, come and find you
Just to tell you, you don't need to
Care what happens in this life
So just sleep for tonight
You had me kicking like a runaway roach
With a one-two stroke through the waters
That I poached so bad
Wish you could stay, but things can't keep that way
Feels like I've heard it before
Static on the line, but I can't make it go
What the people said is true, but
I wish I hadn't told you
We're just ten steps away from nowhere
Ten steps away from getting back home
Ten steps away from progress
Ten steps away from passing the test
'Cause I tried to, come and find you
Just to tell you, you don't need to
Care what happens in this life
So just sleep for tonight
We're just ten steps away from nowhere
Ten steps away from getting back home
Ten steps away from progress
Ten steps away from passing the test
'Cause I tried to, come and find you
Just to tell you, you don't need to
Care what happens in this life
So just sleep for tonight
So just sleep for tonight
So just sleep for tonight
So just sleep for tonight
So just sleep for tonight
Captured by shackles, bred by own dismay
Take it back, broke a bone, I'm alone, got a wing-tapped tone, gotta go prone, because
You've got me kickin' like a runaway
Ten steps away from getting back home
Ten steps away from progress
Ten steps away from passing the test
'Cause I tried to, come and find you
Just to tell you, you don't need to
Care what happens in this life
So just sleep for tonight
With a one-two stroke through the waters
That I poached so bad
Wish you could stay, but things can't keep that way
Feels like I've heard it before
Static on the line, but I can't make it go
What the people said is true, but
I wish I hadn't told you
Ten steps away from getting back home
Ten steps away from progress
Ten steps away from passing the test
'Cause I tried to, come and find you
Just to tell you, you don't need to
Care what happens in this life
So just sleep for tonight
Ten steps away from getting back home
Ten steps away from progress
Ten steps away from passing the test
'Cause I tried to, come and find you
Just to tell you, you don't need to
Care what happens in this life
So just sleep for tonight
So just sleep for tonight
So just sleep for tonight
So just sleep for tonight
