| Your mailbox is always empty |
| And your landlord always complains |
| And you try to forget your past |
| But it’s just adding to your pain |
| And it’s time for one more cigarette |
| Yes, I slept on your satin pillows |
| They felt like a second skin |
| You needn’t have looked so helpless there |
| I was the moth stuck on your pin |
| Sleeping, I am the sleeper |
| Sleeping, I am the sleeper |
| Oh it used to feel so right |
| Everything seemed new |
| I haven’t changed |
| It isn’t me that’s what’s wrong with you |
| Sleeping, I am the sleeper |
| The sun came up and you’d come back |
| The door was open wide |
| I should have slammed it in your face |
| I should have shot you in the back |
| That’s what jesus would have done |
| If satan had come |
| And looked him in the eye and said |
| «you're my kind of guy, why don’t you come away with me? |
| Come away with me» |
| Cause I love you, I love ya, I love ya — that’s what she said |
| I love ya, love ya |
| I’d rather speak to satan himself |
| I love you, I love you, I love you |
| I love you, I’m the sleeper |
