I Got My Dead Man Sleep

<p>I got my dead man sleep I lived as wolf among the sheep</p><p>With screaming hate I hide the tear But at night my daemons made me fear</p><p>I laid me down in autumn rain A man should not live in shame</p><p>I sleep underneath red leaf The maple's gift to hide my grief</p><p>I was the ahab of my life My wrath was my love and my wife</p><p>I hunt through oceans for the whale To burden him with wrath and fail</p><p>While I dream I wither away I'll never see the spring in may</p><p>The wolves will dig out all my bones They scattered rot between the stones</p><p>My rest seems now calm and deep Finally I got my dead man sleep</p>
