lyrics

Where can you find true rest,
Where the tide of your mind
Darts forth and rests its head
Gently upon the sand?

Oh, it could be days, it could be years
It could be more years,
So I’ll take relief whenever it comes,
Where I can find it.
I know what awaits on my last day
Before I slumber, so
Why would I rest now, while I’m alive,
When sleep awaits me?

For each night that you rest,
In the morning you are
Born unto yourself new,
And one morn you’ll rise no more.

Oh, it could be days, it could be years
It could be more years,
So I’ll take relief whenever it comes,
Where I can find it.
I know what awaits on my last day
Before I slumber, so
Why would I rest now, while I’m alive,
When sleep awaits me?

And while you sleep, you dream…

Even with a new sound, his core songwriting voice--“melodic and lyrical invention,” “chilling chord progressions,” “rare honesty and power"- remains. ... more
