Everything to Help You Sleep - Julien Baker

What is it like to be empty?

Full of only echoes

And my body caving in

A cathedral of arching ribs

Heaving out their broken hymns

Thought I made out your reply

The seconds between sound and light

And I could have sworn the sirens were the

Holy ghost just speaking in morse code

Lord, Lord, Lord, is there some way to make it stop

'Cause nothing that I do has ever helped to turn it off

And everything supposed to help me sleep at night

Don’t help me sleep at night, anymore

From a distance, light from stars

Entry wounds or puncture marks

Leaking from your arms through the

Perforated dark

'Cause Lord, Lord, Lord, is there some way to make it stop

'Cause nothing that I do has ever helped to turn it off

And everything supposed to help me sleep at night

Don’t help me sleep at night, anymore
