Helps You Sleep
While this story is about a man whose girlfriend did him wrong yet blames him for it, it can go both ways for sure. It doesn't have a gender per se. This is something a lot of couples deal with when they split, in that one likes to turn everyone against the other and carry it in a very vindictive way. The moral of this story is that the guy doesn't care. As long as it helps her sleep.

Wunschliste
The curtain fell many acts ago
Nobody cried for an encore
Midway through the play, we stopped the show
And it ain't comin' back for a tour
It was hard to end; I found you with him
Strange how anywise you put it on me
My restlessness comes from you, I guess
While wanton minds quickly fade off to sleep
(Chorus)
So close your eyes
Hum lullabies
Get snuggled up and breathe in deep
Drift into a dream
Where you still blame me
Just as long as it helps you sleep
You stayed away for years and days
Hoping I wouldn't speak of the truth
My lips wore a seal, fault not revealed
Too blind to see what good it could do
When you heard my hush, you spoke clear up
Every friend turned foe and pitted on me
A new lesson learned and a novel burn
I pace the floor while you're living a dream
(Chorus)
Out with a guy, that new penny shine
What's out front is better than the rear
I've gnawed my tongue 'til the world tastes numb
I got a few things bet he'd love to hear
But I keep it down; it don't slip out
I just walk away, the keeper of peace
Not a noble call; just don't care at all
I'd rather go and try to get me some sleep
(Chorus)
