Sleep Tight
Ostap Lyrics

You never held the keys
You never had control over your dreams and aspirations

Of the dreams you never had
You never had any dreams to pursue or achieve

You never tended to regret
You never dwelled on past mistakes or wished to change the past

And it's just too late
It's too late to undo any regrets or fulfill any unachieved dreams

You always tried your best
You always did the best you could with what you had

And I guess you were not blessed
Despite your efforts, things didn't turn out in your favor

You never saw the signs
You never recognized the indications or warnings of what was to come

That you looked for
Despite searching for a sign, you never found one

I wanna find my way for a day
I want to discover my purpose or direction even if it's just for a day

I wanna learn to heal my knees
I want to learn how to overcome my hardships and struggles

If there was a better choice to make
If there was an easier or better path to take

I'd better be blind
It's better to be completely unaware of that choice

Your hair has turned grey
You've aged and can feel the physical and emotional effects of it

And your eyes are not the same
Your perspective on life has changed with your experiences and age

You feel it in your bones
You're conscious of your deteriorating physical state and the resulting limitations

That you're the old man
You're now considered a senior or elderly person

Your sails are full of holes
Your life is full of shortcomings and obstacles

Even lonely breezes can't take you home
Even small comforts can't provide the peace and contentment you desire

To the lighthouse
To a place of safety or hope

That blinks from the height
A beacon of hope or guidance that is visible from afar

I wanna sleep tight
I want to find peace and comfort in rest
