sleeping deeply
where no one can see
what I'm dreaming of
in the heart of me

I'm sleeping deeply
see how nothing shows
what I'm all about
nobody knows

these are illusions I create to keep you interested
to keep you from thinking that anything is wrong
pasting a moment of reflected feeling into my scrapbook
and letting you decide whether it might belong

while I sleep deeply
letting my heart heal
where no one can know
what I truly feel

I'm sleeping deeply
peaceful apathy
becomes my blanket
comforting me

I don't want someone to save me from pits of despair
I'm not looking for a mother who controls to care
I don't know if unconditional love can reach me anymore
I've been sleeping so deeply so long, I don't answer the door

sleep brings a natural ambivalence
awareness without responsibility
maybe I'll wake up for something real
and maybe I've gone down so deep
nothing matters to me

sleeping deeply
innocent and free
harming no one
comforting me

I'm sleeping deeply
in peaceful apathy
where nothing really matters
except fantasy

sleeping deeply
maybe you can not reach me
sleeping deeply
maybe you can come to me
