The Swiss Guard - Sleep Off the Dream Lyrics

I'm heading home to
Sleep off a dream
I've been having every night
We built an empire
On self esteem
And everyone was right
We swept the ashes of the Ferris Wheel,
Built another where the old one
Used to be
Five weeks' vacation and a sweetheart deal
Everything for free
We were all grown up
The astronauts
We'd always be we'd hoped
Giving orders and calling shots
Instead of taking both
Most of my friends were born in broken homes
We know the rent is month to month on Easy Street
Just doors and windows, locks and skin and bones
Just a place to fall asleep
It takes an hour just to wash it off
Every time I wake
I try the good stuff but it just makes me cough
And make little mistakes
Most of my friends were born in broken homes
We know the rent is month to month on Easy Street
Just doors and windows, locks and skin and bones
Just a place to fall asleep
Most of my friends were born unsatisfied
Impatient patients of a doctor down the street
Check the locks and let the cat inside
And try to get some sleep

I'm heading home to
Sleep off a dream
I've been having every night
We built an empire
On self esteem
And everyone was right
We swept the ashes of the Ferris Wheel,
Built another where the old one
Used to be
Five weeks' vacation and a sweetheart deal
Everything for free
We were all grown up
The astronauts
We'd always be we'd hoped
Giving orders and calling shots
Instead of taking both
Most of my friends were born in broken homes
We know the rent is month to month on Easy Street
Just doors and windows, locks and skin and bones
Just a place to fall asleep
It takes an hour just to wash it off
Every time I wake
I try the good stuff but it just makes me cough
And make little mistakes
Most of my friends were born in broken homes
We know the rent is month to month on Easy Street
Just doors and windows, locks and skin and bones
Just a place to fall asleep
Most of my friends were born unsatisfied
Impatient patients of a doctor down the street
Check the locks and let the cat inside
And try to get some sleep
