Sleeping Songtext
von The Lippies

(Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!)
(Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!)
She′s only sleeping, she is never dead
When I least expect it, rears her pretty head
And once I think I'm safe
She tries to pull me to the bottom
She′s the reflection looking back at me in the mirror
This side that tells me there's no reason to be here
So in the meantime while I am
I might as well just burn it down
(Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!)
(Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!)
She's only sleeping, she is never dead
Emerging during my lows disguised as a friend
And once I′m finally asleep
She will light one up and slumber with me
As she drifts off the cigarette, it falls
From fingers limp under the couch it rolls
Unconscious enemy proves to be just as damaging
(Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!) (Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!)
As she lay happily asleep
Welcoming out impeding doom
The flames she plans for us to meet
Will keep us locked in that room
After it ceases to exist
But I′m not ready to be dirt
This I will prove
She's only sleeping, she is never dead
I want to kill her but I realize
That we share blood our veins are intertwined
As long as I can keep asleep
I will be fine
A part of me yearns to be in the ground
And that′s exactly where it can be found
Now following her down is only rain
So when she sucks the flowers bloom
(Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!)
(Hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey!)
