Off by One

I count down sheep to sleep Listening to them laugh I'm going numb in all my fears And skipping all the math That camera kissed asleep Throws me into shock relief I'm stumbling down the stairs I'm stumbling down the stairs, 'cause I can't really feel my feet I count down sheep to sleep I count down sheep to sleep I feel safe around safe people Here's the church and here's the steeple And at the height of hubris I make myself numb in all my fears I've untied all the strings But can't make myself a man I'm stumbling through conversation And can't really feel my hands I count down sheep to sleep I count down sheep to sleep And at the height of hubris I pretend it can't be done I was only off by one I was only off by one I count down sheep to sleep I count down sheep I count down sheep I count down sheep to sleep I count down sheep I count down sheep I count down sheep to sleep I count down sheep I count down sheep I count down sheep to sleep I count down sheep I count down sheep I count down sheep to sleep I count down sheep I count down sheep I count down sheep to sleep
