I'm Going To Sleep

I'm going to sleep...
there is no more hurt
I won't feel the gravediggers
pouring in the dirt
it's just a fleeting moment
pitch coal black....

I'm going to sleep
with my heart
still on my sleeve
for better or worst, my compass
it defined me
so the marble will read....

I'm going to sleep
with gun powder residue
with a twelve inch blade
on a bloody mattress
and pillow case
it's just for a bit
I just shot myself clean
I just sliced myself a inch

I'm going to sleep
in my Sunday's best
no more tears
no more rise of my chest
it's just a nap...
just a peaceful rest....
