They stand at the wall with some tar and new feathers Dressing the truth, trimming our hedges Feeding the young to the path of the broken Stoking the fires with gestures they've stolen So please Just go to sleep Oh please, please Just go to sleep Cut to the bone with their carnival features Flooding our rooms, a new breed of creature Swallow our minds as our dreams are forgotten The mercy is gone but interest is locked in So please Just go to sleep No need to think, now Oh just go to sleep Stumble alone On a bridge To where we are from Make us rich Make us belong Make us rich Make us belong Oh, please Just go to sleep No need to think, now Just go to sleep
