Streetlight Manifesto - The Big Sleep Lyrics

Send "The Big Sleep" ringtone to your cell

Why do you cry when you know how the story ends?

How can you laugh when you know that it hurts your friends?

We've all been there once but you never left

This is me coming back back to get you out

To say goodbye to make amends

I'm not leaving this place unless I'm leaving with you

You're the only person with a half decent heart here

And I know you will put it to use

Until it's gone gone gone

Gone gone gone

Gone gone gone gone gone yeah

Na na na

Na na na

Na na na

And as you close your eyes for the big sleep

I hope you think of me

Na na na

Na na na

Na na na

And if you go I'll be gone

And you'll be left alone to live your life as you please

But someday you'll agree

That I was always meant for you

You were always meant for me

And you will see that you're impossible

You're impossible you're impossible

You're impossible

Me and Mr. Dylan on the ride home

We had a heart to heart about life

But neither him or me could decide for ourselves

If we wanted to outlive that night

Like two children on the playground of the unconfessed souls

Abandoned by our mothers and our lovers and our foes

If only we were brave enough to live the lives we stole

What a wonderful world this could be

Na na na

Na na na

Na na na

And as you close your eyes for the big sleep

I hope you think of me

Na na na

Na na na

Na na na

And if you go I'll be gone

And you'll be left alone to live your life as you please

But someday you'll agree

That I was always meant for you

You were always meant for me

And you will see that you're impossible

You're impossible you're impossible

You're impossible

So how many more examples until we break?

So how many sacrifices must we make?

Because we've all been there once before

And it looks like we've returned once more

Is this the beginning or the end?

The last two soldiers on the battlefield

Survivors of the war

They aim at one another while their mothers beg the Lord

"If you're listening I'm missing him

So somehow bring him home how did it come to this?"

So the soldiers lift their rifles they're aiming at the head

They think of their first love before they take their final breaths

And somewhere in the distance they hear something someone said

"How did it come to this?"

And as you close your eyes for the big sleep

I hope you think of me yeah

Na na na

Na na na

Na na na

And as you close your eyes for the big sleep

I hope you think of me

Na na na

Na na na

Na na na
