[Verse 1]

It's alright, you can sleep tonight

They won't bother you my child

Listen to the sweet voice in your ear

Let the world go on being wild


[Chorus 1]

Rest in My arms, wait for the sound

Of the blast thunder in the air

Don't be bothered by the man with the gun

He's bound to get his share


[Verse 2]

So My child, you can sleep tonight

They won't bother you again

Listen to my sweet voice in your ear

Let the world go to it's end


[Chorus 1]

Rest in My arms, wait for the sound

Of the blast thunder in the air

Don't be bothered by the man with the gun

He's bound to get his sharе


[Verse 3]

I hear the still voice tеlling me to take a break

From pressure, panic, and the things that I can't take

But should I wait or should I jump in on my own

All these decisions make by system say it's time to break down


[Chorus 2]

System breakdown, coming at you now

System breakdown, try to stop somehow

System breakdown, catch it at the source

System breakdown, system breakdown


[Verse 4]

You said You'd help me stay and keep me in control

So help me rest and wait send comfort to my soul

But it's so hard to keep my mind on all those words

And so I fall systems stop—time to break down


[Chorus 2]

System breakdown, coming at you now

System breakdown, try to stop somehow

System breakdown, catch it at the source

System breakdown, system breakdown


[Verse 5]

I hear the still voice telling me to take a break

From pressure, panic, and the things that I can't take

You said You'd help me stay and keep me in control

So help me rest and wait send comfort to my soul
