[00:02:08] Album by: Energy

[00:02:08] Artist by: Operation Ivy

[00:02:08] Sleep long, sleep well

[00:02:08] Only to awake in hell.

[00:02:08] [x2

[00:02:08] One day I saw a man asleep

[00:02:08] In a doorway on the street

[00:02:08] Through walls of sheltered inhibition

[00:02:08] I perceived his condition.

[00:02:08] Dying of hunger and exposure,

[00:02:08] Food and shelter, two blocks over.

[00:02:08] Within this place we breed and dwell

[00:02:08] We锛噕e created living hell.

[00:02:08] Sleep long, sleep well

[00:02:08] Only to awake in hell.

[00:02:08] [x2

[00:02:08] City sleeps and pigeons flutter,

[00:02:08] Vagrant dies in the gutter

[00:02:08] Prideless death somehow befitting

[00:02:08] To life spent working on forgetting.

[00:02:08] Riding on the bus, I looked outside and thought about death

[00:02:08] Passing cars the only tribute to his gasping final breath.

[00:02:08] Sleep long, sleep well

[00:02:08] Only to awake in hell.

[00:02:08] [x2

[00:02:08] Then I went home, to get my mind off things,

[00:02:08] I decided to watch television.

[00:02:08] Constant subliminal brain immersion

[00:02:08] Subconscious death wish coercion.

[00:02:08] Buy and consume and want and need

[00:02:08] Never fall from the trap of greed.

[00:02:08] I thought about the bitter pain

[00:02:08] Of jail cells and falling rain,

[00:02:08] I thought ahead and I looked away,

[00:02:08] What can you do anyway ?

[00:02:08] In sheltered youth and our pretension

[00:02:08] Avert our eyes to divert attention

[00:02:08] Only to see the human victims

[00:02:08] Always there to remind us.

[00:02:08] Sleep long, sleep well

[00:02:08] Only to awake in hell.

[00:02:08] [x2

[00:02:08] Only to awake in hell.
