See the sleep that rests upon

The quiet street we're standing on

Is it time to go away?

Try again some other day?

D F Em G
to say goodbye

Bones crack, curtains drawn

On my back and the sheet is gone

Somewhere else I do not know
Em G
Time will tell and I will go

to say goodbye

I will wait, take a turn
Em G
Sort it out, let it burn

Empty out empty drawer
Em G
In my pockets there's nothing more
