Menzingers, The - Deep Sleep (Acoustic) Lyrics






To deep sleep,
I know everything ain’t free,
As I rummage through an old phonebook deciphering names,
That were carved on the Paupack peaks,
Remember me?
Remember May 2003?

When we were hopeless,
We were doomed by our pending defeats,
You drank Jack and I’d drink anything that’s free,
I wonder what your old man thinks of us now,
Slowly setting sons?

I don’t want to wait for,
I don’t want to wait for,
I don’t want to wait for,
I don’t want to wait for,
Things to get better,
Things to get better,
Pull your car over.

To deep sleep,
I know now that your liver is weak,
You drank it to oblivion with me,
Those times we'd steal liquor beneath your parents' sink,
It feels like forever ago,
It feels like forever ago,
It feels like forever ago.

I don't want to wait for,
I don't want to wait for,
I don't want to wait for,
I don't want to wait for,
Things to get better,
Things to get better,
Pull your car over.

    Jenn, when i first listened to your covers of The Menzingers I had no idea who they were. Now that I have become a fan of theirs, I have a new perspective on your covers, but they are still awesome with or without knowledge of the original. Keep kicking ass!

  11. V.... P....

    saw the mezingers back in 2013, they were decent live - but your cover is magic!

    V.... P....

    lol "decent"; good try at evaluating live music

    V.... P....

    We are here to enjoy this cover. My comment was a comparison not an evaluation. Your verbal diarrhea has runneth over little bobby boi

    V.... P....

    I apologize. I was a little drunk last night watching the RNC and got somewhat offended you seemed unimpressed with one of my favorite bands.

  12. C.... N....

    Good work! Greatings from an brazilian Menzingers fan!
