We Won't Sleep
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Take everything that you own
Throw it into the fire
The rats will inherit what's left
They'll decorate and remodel
These rooms that were once
Where we rested our heads
Have crumbled and crashed to the ground
We won't sleep till the lights burn out
Just stay
(I won't give up I won't fall)
We won't leave till the roof caves in
Just stay
Knocked off the king from his throne
Called a cheat and a liar
It's true but I'm much better dressed
Fashioned pain from another
These beds that were once
Where we nurtured our young
Have broken and bent from the love
We won't sleep till the lights burn out
Just stay
(I won't give up I won't fall)
We won't leave till the roof caves in
Just stay
So the time will come
Where you ask yourself: What have I done?
There's a place in hell for your friends
We are all doomed
And we are all doomed
And we are all doomed
And we are all doomed
We won't sleep till the lights burn out
Just stay
We won't leave till the roof caves in
Just stay
(I won't give up I won't fall)
We won't sleep till the lights burn out
Just stay
(We won't give up, we won't fall)
