Lyrics Half Asleep - School of Seven Bells

Half Asleep

Sometimes I go whole days
Listening, bored, half asleep
I won’t say anything
That’s worth a thing to me
One day, suddenly time
Took a turn that once felt so brief
I blinked to see polite ghosts fading quickly
What begins as an unguarded
Train of thoughts slowly can become
An addiction to the slumber
Of disconnection and resonance
Of memory that no longer has a shape
But keeps you numb through
The hours till gone is another day
Be aware, my darling
These things I say I mean
Are just traces of something
I long to feel again
I see our time expand
In the air almost forcibly
Spreading thinner till it dissolves completely
What begins as an unguarded
Train of thoughts slowly can become
An addiction to the slumber
Of disconnection and resonance
Of memory that no longer has a shape
But keeps you numb through
The hours till gone is another day
