My temple is built
Of wood and of stone
Each space is filled
With the things that I own
Idols of gods that call me to bow
Oh I try to be free
But there's no freedom now
No freedom now

Chorus:

And my gods won't let me sleep
And what a man sows that he will reap
And I toss and turn at night
I've got places to go, I've got battles to fight
And my gods won't let me sleep
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Ambitions once good, once noble and pure
Now rule with a rod and I cannot endure
These bonds I have forged with two willing hands
They're not easily torn by the strength of a man

The ones I hold dear
Those most precious to me
Somedays I set them afloat
On an indiff'rent sea
And these things in first place
They're worth nothing at all
At night in my dreams
Graven images call

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:

Won't let me sleep tonight no
No other gods before You
No other holy shrines
Oh I wanna sleep in peace when I lie down
All other voices calling
All of the hands that pull me
Call and demand allegiance to their crown

(Repeat Chorus)

Ending:

Oh let me sleep
Let me sleep
Let me sleep
