Sorrow's Leavin' Town

(album: The New Black And White, Pt. V - 2022)

There's nothing new to me
I've seen it all before
In real life or on TV
When someone closes another door
And I don't wanna be blind
To things I'm not supposed to see
And I don't wanna be part
Of what ain't important anymore

I don't wanna lose the fight
To a world that's hurting me
I just wanna say goodnight
And drift away in dreams

Let me sleep, when things are going down
Let me sleep, when there is no one left around
Who gives a damn about anything
Pink sunrises, or birds that sing
Let me sleep till sorrow's leaving town
Let me sleep till sorrow's leaving town

To hide away sometimes
Looks like a plan you see
But it takes just a little time
Till the bad news is finding me

I don't wanna lose the fight
To a world that's hurting me
I just wanna say goodnight
And drift away in dreams

Let me sleep, when things are going down
Let me sleep, when there is no one left around
Who gives a damn about anything
Pink sunrises, or birds that sing
Let me sleep till sorrow's leaving town
Let me sleep till sorrow's leaving town
Let me sleep till sorrow's leaving town
