lyrics

i can sleep till the day i die
i know i'm yours and I’m safe inside
i feel awake but i know sometimes
i’d rather be resting in you
i’d rather be resting in you

i am happier than my friends
on the days that they go and spend
all their money on food and rent
I know that my heart’s set on you
I know that my heart’s set on you

i tell myself that you always near
i tell myself that you always hear
every word that i mumble
i know that you hear every word
i know that you hear every word

i can sleep til the day i die
you are my water when flames are high
the darkest caves sing your lullaby
god, all my rest is in you
god, all my rest is in you
god, all my rest is in you
god, all my rest is in you
