Sleepwalker |
I lived my life alone before you |
And with those that I’d never succeeded to love |
And I grew so accustomed to that kind of solitude |
I fought you, I did not know how to give it up |
Before you, had I ever known love |
Or had I only known misuse of the power another had over me? |
The power another had over me |
I crossed the country and I carried no key |
Couldn’t I look up at the stars from anywhere? |
And sometimes I did, I felt ancient |
But still I sought peace and it never came to me |
They often spoke as though I had been set free |
But I traveled only in service of my dreams |
I stood before them all, I was a sleepwalker |
Couldn’t hold my misery down |
Not even for you |
It bore me on all the places I’ve ever gone |
And I grew so accustomed to that kind of solitude |
But I long for you now |
Even when you just leave the room |
And of all the roads and the cities that I passed through |
And of all the eyes I have searched inside |
The one sense of permanence that I came to feel was mine |
Only beneath your gaze |
