RPWL - Sleep Lyrics
The new born moon seems like a cradle, shining on the desert sandScent of sandalwood and jasmine, a goddess with a silver skinI am painting all your flowers, I'm the shadow of your dreamWho changed your opium to money shiva calls your name,Why don't you sleep?You're not worth a passing glance, I'm the picture in your mindWho can feel the wind blows gently sparkling dust over the landA stone is not a stone until I tell you what it's supposed to beWho changed your opium to money shiva calls again,Why don't you sleep?And all our dreams are rushing to the riverThe river that has always flowedWhen maya comes and sets our hearts on fireOur dreams will show the way back homeLighter than a tuft of feathers, dancing with the rays of lightDigging oceans with my fingers, patterns carved into the skyThe creation of the earth is in my sight which no one's seen beforeSparkles of awakening knowledge shiva calls your name,Why don't you sleep?And all our dreams are rushing to the riverThe river that has always flowedWhen maya comes and sets our hearts on fireFrightened and weepingI read my name on a tombstone in a graveyard I don't knowIn another dimension sitting with a pale faceOn the hill of the dead!The clouds all painted pinkMe wrapped in white cotton, nobody can see me at allThe letters of my name, iridescent and melting in the sunUnsatisfied and restless, seeking in wrong placesWading through a sea of my desiresWhen I burned away my bondsI knew that I could not remain the same!I left a fragment of my soulKnotted in a tree top as a present for the endless universeMy form is full of lightAs I'm going to the woods to find myself againAll the good, all the badAll the pleasure, all the painAll the yearnings of the brave,All the sun and all the rainAll the beauty, all the dirtAll the love and all the hateAll the laughing, all lamenting, the acceptance of our fateAll illusions that we have,All our secret fairytales,Are doomed to slow decay; are flowing down the stream.So come and kiss my silver skin while I paint pictures in your mindSo you can feel again that life's just a dream within a dream
