Sleep tight memories

We’ve all gotta turn in sometimes

Fall back, take a seat

Cause I never made it past the headlines

And who could ever understand the obligation that was forcing my hand?

Another chance for grace to win

As I give in



Down this river of lead I roll

Feel it pull me underneath

If the fire don’t kill me the water will

Feel it pull me underneath

Lay me down to sleep

I pray there’s something left to keep



I hold my breath and wait for the mountain to move

But I forget there’s nothing that I can do

I guess I never seem to choose a side

The conversation’s taking place in my mind

Another chance for grace to win if I give in



Down this river of lead I roll

Feel it pull me underneath

If the fire don’t kill me the water will

Feel it pull me underneath

Lay me down to sleep

I pray there’s something left



Oh if you could, but you can’t get by

You ain’t gonna be anything if you don’t try



Down this river of lead I roll

Feel it pull me underneath

If the fire don’t kill me the water will

Feel it pull me underneath

Down this river of lead I roll

Feel it pull me underneath

If the fire don’t kill me the water will

Feel it pull me underneath

Lay me down to sleep

I pray there’s something left to keep
