Let It Sleep Lyrics

Heaven's gone and hell is here
There's nothing left for you my dear
So grab a glass and pour a drink
Learn to swim before you sink

Go
I can't remember the last time I smiled
God it's been a while
So much hate I've held inside
Behind these eyes there's a devil inside
Behind these eyes there's a devil inside

Life's too short for you to die
Ignore the lows make sure you're high
And don't you ever look back

Let it sleep, let it sleep, let it sleep
I've almost given up
Oh God I know I'm fucked

Something is just not right
I need to leave this place
Out of mind, out of sight
My evil thoughts can't hide
And I am trapped in my own mind, own mind
There's not a thing you can do
You're fucked and I am too
There's not a thing you can do
You're fucked and I am too

Trapped in hell I'm all alone
With my sins staring through my soul
I guess there's no way out
Let it sleep, let it sleep
And beg he won't wake up
Let it sleep, let it sleep
Oh God I know I'm fucked

Pray for death
Nothing left for you to live for
Sick of your god damn lies
Hiding behind dead eyes
I never needed you
No god above, no hell below me
Screaming but no one's there
Praying that someone cares
No one believes in you
Still alive but barely breathing
Stabbing me in the back
I never asked for that
Drinking away your pain
Taking everything for granted
I hate you

Something is just not right
I need to leave this place
Out of mind, out of sight
My evil thoughts can't hide
And I am trapped in my own mind, own mind
There's not a thing you can do
You're fucked and I am too
There's not a thing you can do
You're fucked and I am too

I can't remember the last time
I can't remember the last time I smiled
I can't remember the last time

What is the Meaning of Let It Sleep?

Exploring themes of internal struggle and emotional turmoil, this track delves into the sense of being trapped within one's own mind. The lyrics express an intense conflict, illustrated by a battle against inner demons and the suffocating presence of negative thoughts. The imagery of being in "hell" and feeling "trapped" underscores a deep-seated despair and the feeling of isolation despite being surrounded by others. It calls attention to self-destructive tendencies and the search for an escape. The repeated mantra to "let it sleep," suggests a desire to suppress these overwhelming emotions rather than confront them. Ultimately, the song conveys a raw, unfiltered portrayal of mental anguish and the desperate hope for relief. #InnerTurmoil #EmotionalStruggle
