Lyrics
Tendrils Drew the shades and snuffed the lights Dug in deep and covered tight Quailing fugues of caffeine dreams While gears behind my eyes spin free I plead for tendrils of sleep To be coiled around me Silence is feigning release While my thoughts are howling Is this akin to brushing death? I’m so alone and desolate I plead for tendrils of sleep To be coiled around me Silence is feigning release While my thoughts are howling Shut my eyes to shut out time But nothing helps my restless mind Shut my eyes to shut out time But nothing helps my restless mind And I’m drifting… in a limbo devoid of slumber And I’m begging… for Hypnos to lull me under So I’m reeling… this stagnant repose is Tragic-dismal, barren-wasted and just when tethers cinch I’m waking Oh please… I plead for tendrils of sleep To be coiled around me Silence is feigning release While my thoughts are howling Shut my eyes to shut out time But nothing helps my restless mind Shut my eyes to shut out time But nothing helps my restless mind Lyrics and Music by Robert Chaney c2013
