lyrics

now i lay me down to sleep just like my mama told me
i pray the lord my soul to keep, hoping darkness overtakes me
if i should die before i wake, would i really even know it?
i pray the lord my soul to take, at least that's how my mama told it

i'm heading out into the night, far from the city lights
to a place where i can stay
where there's no one around and there's nothing to say
cause when you're talking to yourself, you don't need nobody else
to pick you up or bring you down
what you thought you found was always around

now i'm lying here on the sheet, i bend my ear to the cicada
try like hell just to get some sleep and save everything for later

just head out in to the woods, it'll do your head some good
and leave your history behind
there's something to be said for some peace of mind
when you're living by yourself, you don't need nobody else
to bring you up or bring you down
what you thought you lost was always around

when you're talking to yourself, you don't need nobody else
to pull you up or put you down
what you thought you found was always around
