Ned Farr & The Good Red Road

Lyrics

Stop
Sleep
How could she do what she did to me?
How could she say what she said to me?
Stop
Sleep
Yeah, but what can I tell her when next we meet?
And how can I turn back what’s happening?
Stop

Strapped in tight inside the bedroom
Looping back and forth in time
Reimagine all you’ve been through
Awake and dreaming of the fight
And trying to break free
Ruminating while the world’s asleep
In too deep
Ruminating while the world’s asleep

Obsessing over every moment
The vinyl skips and starts again
Searching for some resolution
Chasing your tail, bearing your teeth
While howling in the street
Ruminating while the world’s asleep
There’s no relief
Ruminating while the world’s on fire!

But how could she do what she did to me
How could she say what she said to me
STOP

Another night another replay
You’ve tried the booze, the pills, the weed
Strapped in tight inside the bedroom
There’s just no breaking free…

So get out of bed
Write it all down
Everything you should have said
Let it out
Sing the song
Try to mend
Defend the broken parts
Just don’t hit send
Hit send
Rage
Like a sniper on the page
Standing guard
Over your needs and your peace
And now you’ll sleep
