Sleepwalking

I fell asleep in the chair by the fireplaceAnd I woke up in the kitchen sinkWith an umbrella full of holes overtop my head and

I fell asleep on the table with your picture in handAnd I woke up in the cupboardWith some scrapes on my arms and a mouthful of hell

Chains are rattling in the attic againAnd the birds are building nests in the windowsillDust has settled over everythingAnd the ceiling fan still cuts a lazy circle

I got a picture on the mantle pieceOf the way that I thought that we'd end upBut this shares no resemblance to thatYeah, that shares no resemblance to that at all

I tore the dreams from my head and tossed them in the flamesAnd the smoke smelled like my pastAnd it stung my eyes, but I was too stubborn to blink andI slept inside the piano 'till the rain was goneAnd I woke up when I saw the sunAnd wiped the sleep from my eyesYeah, I knew my time had come

We're all still a part of everything that we wereAnd we'll all float along with everythingAnd in turn, we'll all fall apart with everythingBut we'll learn just what things are like outside our heads

And I hear them singingAnd I hear my nameAnd I feel you scrub my skinAnd I was happy to fade
