Songs Title:so long sweet misery So long my misery ... I don't need you, you've only caused me grief ... Forgive me if I fall asleep I haven't slept in centuries Daylight lives like a burden for me So I escape the sennit strewn about the street Beyond the ruins of my ancestry Far past the pages of my disbelief I rose from my moat, like a ghost from a grave Sunken in the salty eyes of the wanderin' displaced I was headed through the mists across the golden gate All of my rebellions fall into the fog of fate So long my misery I don't need you, you've only caused me grief Forgive me if I fall asleep I haven't slept in centuries ................... Springtime came again and Icarus fell I flew past the numb-lipped nuns who never tell The secrets of the sailors and their seven year spell will I not fall nor will my wings ever melt If I could I would wash all these wounds away I would surround your room with sentiments of grace I would paint your portrait over everything mundane More colorful than Easter Sunday So long my misery. I don't need you, you've only caused me grief Forgive me if I fall asleep I haven't slept in centuries ................... Put me on a boat, leave my inhibitions at bay My mind is spilling but I haven't much to say I was running through the canyons towards the echoes of your name You were laughing at me like sun laughs at a flame me Put on a page a in book of beginnings Let me scroll through old volumes of ancient teachings me Let revel in all of these forgotten feelings Lay me with the wretched in the arms of my queen So long sweet misery I don't need you, you've only caused me grief Forgive me if I fall asleep haven't I slept in centuries So long sweet misery I don't need you, you've only caused me grief Forgive me if I fall asleep I haven't slept in centuries. No, I haven't slept in centuries. haven't I slept in centuries
