Sleeping Solves Nothing was originally written and recorded by Unexpected Bowtie (Stephen McLeod Blythe). I thought it was a great song. I asked him if I could record a cover of the song. He said yes, so I made two. This is the slow one.
lyrics
don't look back now
it's all so quiet
i've lost my way
i'm sure you'll find it
the past is gone
is that not obvious?
our favorite game
this time we've lost it
don't look back now
it's all so quiet
i lie awake
sleeping solves nothing
but i can't help
but research motives
the past is gone
is that not obvious?
our favorite game
this time we've lost it
don't look back now
it's all so quiet
you've run away
you ran away
