As I Lay Me Down to Sleep

As I Lay Me Down to Sleep

As I lay me down to sleep
Pray my eyes don’t see the dreams I weep
May my memory conceal the sounds
So my heart won’t bleed until it drowns
For I can’t escape my mind's ordeal
Bound by the pain I’ll always feel
Please lonely night don’t be so cold
Have mercy on my tortured soul
