Lyrics
40 Winks (A Song Of Despair)
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.
It's not right, but all's gone wrong.
A star-crossed lover's picture of everyone.
It is finite, but hope's not gone,
I'm still stealing this feeling; to feel someone.
Someone carry me.
Someone carry me home.
Tonight, I'll take my life
In my own hands, I'll make it a place I like.
So I'm sorry, it seems I've been
Too selfless, I'm helpless to all you've seen.
Someone carry me.
Someone carry me home. Oh.
These sacred stars that shine at night,
Please light the way for me.
I'll wait in line, I'd sacrifice all
Of this life to be rid of you.
Rid of you.
Tonight, I'll take my life
In my own hands, I'll make it a place I like.
So I'm sorry, it seems I've been
Too selfless, I'm helpless to all you've seen.
Someone carry me.
Someone carry me home.
These sacred stars that shine at night,
Please light the way for me.
I'll wait in line, I'd sacrifice all
Of this life to be rid of you.
This is me,
It's all I'll ever be.
So like it or lump it,
I am free.
These sacred stars that shine at night,
Please light the way for me.
I'll wait in line, I'd sacrifice all
Of this life to be rid of...
Sacred stars that shine at night,
Please light the way for me.
I'll wait in line, I'd sacrifice all
Of this life to be rid of you.
Rid of you.
