===Early lyrics (live debut)===
<poem>Now the phone has stopped ringing 'round the clock
They’ve forgotten me
And I realize that it’s dumb to try
So I let them be
I can’t make out words on the page
I get confused by all the rage
La-di-da-di-da-di-da-di, I’m slippin' into
The deep and dreamless sleep
The deep and dreamless sleep
The night that killed the day
Takes fast hold of me
Fall into the deep and dreamless sleep
Now the sun goes down and the flurries fall
On my lonely home
I could watch a play, read some Hemingway
But I probably won’t
I can’t recall last Saturday
It’s hard to hear what people say
La-di-da-di-da-di-da-di, I’m slippin' into
The deep and dreamless sleep
The deep and dreamless sleep
The night that kills the day
Takes fast hold of me
Fall into the deep and dreamless sleep
I remember you well
How you loved the holidays
How you wrapped up the toys
And you left them on display
I remember the bells
How they tolled our hearts divine
But it all slipped away
And the day turned into night
The deep and dreamless sleep
The deep and dreamless sleep
The night that killed the day
Takes fast hold of me
The deep and dreamless sleep
The deep and dreamless sleep
Take me far away
Where all things cease to be
Fall into the deep and dreamless sleep</poem>}}{{Lyric box|
