Let Me Sleep Lyrics
Let me sleep
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep 'cause I can't take anymore nights
With this voice telling me that I die, die
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
I'm afraid to close my eyes
I don't wanna close them
I can still see it
'Cause it's talking to me at night
I don't think that I can take this any longer
Without shutting out the voices
It mutilates me
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep 'cause I can't take anymore nights
With this voice telling me that I die, die
I will die
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep 'cause I can't take anymore nights
With this voice telling me that I die, die
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
I can't take this no more
I cannot take this
Please let me fall asleep
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
Fuck
Let me sleep
Please let me sleep
Please let me sleep
Please let me sleep
Please let me sleep
Bring this shit back you fuck
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
Take this fucking knife now
Cut it out
I'm wide awake
With this voice telling me that I die, die
Please let me sleep
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
I don't wanna close them
I can still see it
'Cause it's talking to me at night
Without shutting out the voices
It mutilates me
With this voice telling me that I die, die
With this voice telling me that I die, die
Please let me sleep
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
Please let me fall asleep
Please let me sleep
Fuck
Please let me sleep
Please let me sleep
Please let me sleep
Please let me sleep
Please let me sleep
I'm wide awake
Please let me sleep
Cut it out
