Anxiety please let me sleep Clear all the thoughts I dare not keep I'm on the ropes And my mind is tangled Anxiety please let me rest I know in my heart I'm not the best But lord knows I try So let me close my eyes These dreams are what I'm wanting Sweet things I want to think about Memories are what holds my waking Forget the pointless things Anxiety please let me drift away Anxiety please let me slumber Cause all you do is pull me under Yet I'll stay dry And deaf to the waves Anxiety please kill the noises I'll take my pills to hush the voices Turn off the lights And pray before you say goodnight These dreams are what I'm wanting Sweet things I want to think about Memories are what holds my waking Forget the pointless things Anxiety please let me drift away Soft wings are what lie below me Heart beats are what keep my thoughts at ease Memories are what holds my waking Forget the pointless things Anxiety please let me drift away As I lie in bed to the sounds of the dying clock Growing old beside me and glowing with no soul I think of many things and yet none at all This isn't fair I wish I could fall asleep
