Still Got a Bullet for Sleep
TitanChord
(Speaking)
Tried countin’ sheep once.
They all ran.
Clock don’t tick, it drips like rain,
Each drop a thought I can’t contain.
Moon’s a wound that never fades,
And my bed’s a grave I never made.
I still got a bullet for sleep,
It keeps knockin’, but I dig too deep.
Dreams don’t come where the damned reside,
So I load my truth and let it ride.
The whiskey hums a lullaby,
The kind that makes angels cry.
If peace is rest, I’ll take the fight,
I trust the dark more than the light.
I still got a bullet for sleep,
It don’t bleed, it don’t weep.
When the silence calls, I cock the gun,
‘Cause I ain’t done, I ain’t done.
Tried closing my eyes, but Hell gets loud.
So I stare it down till it bows out proud.
Ain’t no pillow built for men like me —
Only dust, only decree.
I still got a bullet for sleep,
A promise I ain’t bound to keep.
When the reaper whispers, “Boy, you’re late,”
I’ll grin and say, “I don’t do fate.”
Timing is estimated — lines are spaced evenly across the track.

Lyrics
(Speaking) Tried countin’ sheep once. They all ran.
Clock don’t tick, it drips like rain, Each drop a thought I can’t contain. Moon’s a wound that never fades, And my bed’s a grave I never made.
I still got a bullet for sleep, It keeps knockin’, but I dig too deep. Dreams don’t come where the damned reside, So I load my truth and let it ride.
The whiskey hums a lullaby, The kind that makes angels cry. If peace is rest, I’ll take the fight, I trust the dark more than the light.
I still got a bullet for sleep, It don’t bleed, it don’t weep. When the silence calls, I cock the gun, ‘Cause I ain’t done, I ain’t done.
Tried closing my eyes, but Hell gets loud. So I stare it down till it bows out proud. Ain’t no pillow built for men like me — Only dust, only decree.
I still got a bullet for sleep, A promise I ain’t bound to keep. When the reaper whispers, “Boy, you’re late,” I’ll grin and say, “I don’t do fate.”
