Tears leak out from orbs that are blind
From the depths of an emptiness, cold and unkind
Cry to sleep, cry to sleep, my lovely one
Cry to sleep, cry to sleep, before it's begun
Questions of purpose, what reason exists
Why is she here, despite pain, she persists
Cry to sleep, cry to sleep, in loneliness
Cry to sleep, cry to sleep, with sorrow blessed
Robotic, on auto, her motions and life
Keep her distracted, block internal strife
Cry to sleep, cry to sleep, with nothing to do
Cry to sleep, cry to sleep, with no one but you
In a world full of people, she feels all alone
In a network of friendships, she feels locked in stone
Cry to sleep, cry to sleep, lacking love from within
Cry to sleep, never wake, and in sleep peace shall begin.
