The daylight slowly disappears Beyond the edges of my mind. I close my tired eyes And leave the world behind. The clock forgets its hands, The ocean holds its breath. Tonight there is no ending, No fear of life or death. And somewhere in the silence, A distant heartbeat stays. The night becomes an ocean That carries me away. Let the dark be kind, Let the silence sing. Nothing left to carry, Nothing left to bring. Let the world fall still, Let the stars unwind. I am drifting slowly Through the sleeping mind. Sleep, my restless soul. Sleep, and let it go. A thousand distant voices Are fading into blue. The things I couldn't change Are losing meaning too. The moon upon the water, A lighthouse far away. Somewhere beyond tomorrow, There is no yesterday. I hear the ocean breathing, I feel the turning tide. The universe grows quiet, And I am safe inside. Let the dark be kind, Let the silence sing. Nothing left to carry, Nothing left to bring. Let the world fall still, Let the stars unwind. I am drifting slowly Through the sleeping mind. Sleep, my restless soul. Sleep, and let it go. What if we are dreaming Inside another dream? What if all our sorrows Are smaller than they seem? No answers in the darkness, No promises to keep. Just endless waves of silence And somewhere safe to sleep. Let the dark be kind, Let the silence sing. Nothing left to carry, Nothing left to bring. Let the world fall still, Let the stars unwind. I am drifting slowly Through the sleeping mind. The stars are breathing slowly. The sea has closed its eyes. And everything I once feared Is sleeping here tonight. Sleep, my restless soul. Sleep, and let it go. Let it go. Let it go. Sleep.
