I should really get some sleep
it's been so long, been so long
all my friends have said to me
you look so tired

I feel guilty, cause there's so much to do
I feel lazy, if I take a breath or two

oh, God, give me some rest
a bit of peace that pases over all this mess
don't give me more than what I need
just let me know you hear my plea
oh, God, please come to me
and give me rest

I should really spend some time
alone with you, alone with you
I've always known I'd find you there, maybe that's why
I keep myself so busy, so I don't have to feel
the fear and anger of my darkness that is aching to be healed

oh, God, give me some rest
a bit of peace that passes over all this mess
don't give me more than what I need
just let me know you hear my plea
oh, God, please come to me
and give me rest

why did nobody tell me
just how hard it is to be
the man I always thought that I'd become'
I feel just like a kid who can't grow up

I should really go to bed,
kiss my wife, my sleepy heads
and pray that when I wake tomorrow
something's changed
