Lyrics Lullaby No. 13 - Girl Friday

Lullaby No. 13

In my dreams / voices keep talking at me
In my dreams / voices keep talking at me
In my dreams / voices keep talking at me / telling me how to break
In my dreams / voices keep talking at me / telling me what to take
In my dreams / voices keep talking at me / telling me I’m a fake
In my dreams / voices keep talking at me / telling me not to wake
You can never run from all the voices in the night
Bloody noses scraped knees and handkerchiefs held tight
I can’t stand all the noise but I need it all the same
This is the stuff of nightmares and I’m haunted by your name
You wrap me in your words so I’m a baby in your arms
I wanna hear a lullaby / I only hear alarms
It’s just a dream I tell myself «just wait for the light»
But it’s never just a dream when you give in to the night
And they tell me that it’s fine
And they tell me not to worry
One of them held out a hand and brought me to my knees on the bloody sand
So I’ll feed myself to all the swine and I’ll tell them they don’t have to hurry
Finally, among my kind
Keep me safe and chew me slowly
In my dreams voices keep talking to me (in my dreams voices keep talking to me)
In my dreams voices keep talking to me (in my dreams voices keep talking to me)
In my dreams voices keep talking to me (in my dreams voices keep talking to me)
In my dreams voices keep talking to me (in my dreams voices keep talking to me)
In my dreams voices keep talking at me telling me not to wake
