I wish for sleep tonight
But when I close my eyes
I see a flash of white
I know I cannot fight
Can not encourage lies
I wish for sleep tonight
I know it can ignite
That feeling can arise
I see a flash of white
That simple quiet sight
Could be my own demise
I wish for sleep tonight
I keep my lips sealed tight
To keep up the disguise
I see a flash of white
In the dark of the night
I will watch the moon rise
I wish for sleep tonight
I see a flash of white
