Music Title/Track: Sleep Will Pass Us By
Theme ID: 1355
Album: N/A


I keep thinkin' that she's goin' down
My second sight a fixed on her demise
A slow and silent stretch, broods like the riverbed
Swirlin' round the big and muddy rise

Sulfur colored lights, and frozen rays
Lighin' up the streets behind the bar
The lights are weak and dim, like
the memory of our kin
Disgraced by curses best not learned at all

Sleep will pass us by
It's much too slow for that
This town died but they forgot the funeral
When this town died, they forgot the funeral

Ill afford and ill equiped
Fever-eyed surrender to the rains
The cottonwoods wash locusts from their hair
It's hard to know just what the daylight brings

Sleep will pass us by
It's much too slow for that
This town died but they forgot the funeral
When this town died, they forgot the funeral

Scapegoat heart and scarecrow legs
Nothin' in your pockets worth a dime
A trifling animal, the packhorse of our pride
Leaves the room and carries on so stubbornly

Sleep will pass us by
It's much too slow for that
This town died but they forgot the funeral
When this town died, they forgot the funeral
