Crimpshrine - Sleep, What's That? lyrics

rate me

In a country where I can decide<br />

Will I be jailed or will I abide?<br />

By these laws which I do not believe apply<br />

With all this freedom I have no voice<br />

With all this freedom I have no choice<br />

With all this freedom that I can't find<br />

Only for one kind<br />

And every day seems so important<br />

And every day seems so necessary<br />

Try to take my freedom away<br />

Always dreaming about what I can't be<br />

And if this country is so free<br />

Then why am I arrested for trying to sleep?<br />

And I know a place that's free<br />

But why must it entail poverty?<br />

So much food to eat<br />

And so many homes to sleep in<br />

Stores so full of food<br />

So why must I eat from a garbage bin?<br />

There's 1600 people walking around today<br />

Thinking life's a little game to play<br />

Try to avoid police abduction<br />

Try to avoid hunger and self destruction<br />

Maybe if you could realize that all you're freedom is based on lies<br />

Maybe there's no lifestyle that I want to keep<br />

If I could just get some sleep...
