Fall

Back and forth over and over
Fall asleep
Fall awake
Far away
No way
I can't see
I'm blinded by my pleas

Fall down and roll over love
Just let the pain past
Fight and you'll learn you can't do anything
You're helpless
Fall down stay down
Stop go back to sleep love

She can't stop fighting the sleep
She holds her eyes open
She runs in place
She imagines the ocean
Why doesn't she stop fighting
The pain is breaking her down
Down down down
Still she fights the sleep
