Strata - Sleep Lyrics






I wish I could wash this all away
I'm dragging you across my wrists
If I could just reclaim myself
Find another cure for this

Slipping, pulling, too ripped up to move
Slipping, pulling, too ripped up to move

I can't do this alone
I can't go through this without you
I can't do this alone
I can't do this at all

Could never keep this going on my own
Wish I could pay you back for wasted time
If I could ask one thing of you:
Keep me warm in the back of your mind

I can't do this alone
I can't go through this without you
I can't do this alone
I can't do this at all

Slipping, pulling, too ripped up to move
Slipping, pulling, too ripped up to move

I come alone
This is my sole recourse
This is the end
I'm just sick...slow...just cynical

...Not a second of this matters....

    "Sleep"

    I wish I could wash this all away
    I'm dragging you across my wrists
    If I could just reclaim myself
    Find another cure for this

    Slipping, pulling, too ripped up to move
    Slipping, pulling, too ripped up to move

    I can't do this alone
    I can't go through this without you
    I can't do this alone
    I can't do this at all

    Could never keep this going on my own
    Wish I could pay you back for wasted time
    If I could ask one thing of you:
    Keep me warm in the back of your mind

    I can't do this alone
    I can't go through this without you
    I can't do this alone
    I can't do this at all

    Slipping, pulling, too ripped up to move
    Slipping, pulling, too ripped up to move

    I come alone
    This is my sole recourse
    This is the end
    I'm just sick...slow...just cynical

  13. D.... ....

    Hey, hard night for me... I discovered, cause' "strata" in my language (polish) means a loss. My friend died last night. I can't believe this. I typed strata at youtube search and that was a first result. I've loved "sleep" from first chord. It's so personal for me and the other people that know Bartek. If any one can and know how to do it... it's simple... please pray for him. Good night World.

  14. N.... ....

    This is my favorite song. Ever ! I discovered it years ago and I stil like this voice, these words...
    Strata was a great band who didn't have time enough to know it. It's sad. But thank's to let "sleep" in the music history...

  15. T.... G....

    @Chemical90 completly agree with you

  16. E.... o....

    "Strata presents the end of the world" Is and allways will be the best thing that ever happen the music industry

  17. j.... ....

    strata mm erick victorino changes for a electronik crap in the limousines i need other cd of strata ) ;

  18. D.... T....

    can you upload "the brothers" please. i cant find it anywhere on youtube or in any store

  19. J.... ....

    I remember going to see them play at the Cactus Club and Gaslighters... Man, SJ Local music scene kicked ass back then!!
    They would play will all these mini tv's on stage awesome-o

  20. J.... B....

    Great band that had so much talent. Too bad they broke up.

  21. L.... ....

    any chance i could get a copy??!?!

  22. B.... ....

    This voice is amazing!

  23. d.... ....

    They started a new band called Beta State and are still auditioning for singers. which is dumb imo. They need to try and find someone more close to them and stop with this process that's been going on forever.

    I think Eric was afraid of the band getting too big. I talked to him a month before he left the band. He's real shy, a bit reserved. Or he just didn't like the musical direction they were going in. who knows.

  24. t.... ....

    My ex-girlfriend literally lived right across the street from where these dudes practiced as Downside and somewhat as Strata. The Bassist lived there and needless to say I heard them practice several times and saw them live at the Cactus Club in downtown San Jose when it was still open (long time ago). Good memories.

  25. N.... ....

    Eric, the singer made a new band because he didn't think Strata was going where he wanted to go ( I think that's right ). The band is called The Limousines

  26. p.... ....

    sure would be nice to get a copy of it for myself... can't find this anywhere

  27. J.... R....

    I have a copy :) Many actually..

  28. j.... g....

    i know them are you a fan?

  29. N.... ....

    Its a bit late to reply to you LachozaTube, but I figured I would in case you hadn't found out yet.
    As far as I have gathered, he didn't see Strata going where he wanted to go musically, so he left to make his own band.

  30. f.... ....

    they don't have a new singer yet. they're still auditioning for one.

  31. L.... R....

    I had another fan send me the downside album on aim a while ago when I was looking for "coma therapy" before their last album was released.

  32. L.... R....

    i've got the whole downside "sleep" album.

  33. S.... C....

    theyre not breaking up eric has left the band they are gettin a new singer

  34. L.... ....

    Please go back to this guys. Downside.
