Sleep!
Elope my eyes
Take away your compulsory lessons
For in you we learn the process of journeying beyond.
Elope my eyes
Take away your compulsory lessons
For in you we learn the process of journeying beyond.
Sleep!
Elope me eyes
So I could burn the mid-night oil
That the morning would sing my victory song.
Sleep o! Sleep!
Get thee behind me
For the mind that seeks
To drink from the cup of poverty
You guide their steps to wallow in self pity.
