Lyrics Singing in My Sleep - The Chills

Singing in My Sleep

Singing in my sleep
A word from the wise for the mindless
Hoping to keep all the silences out of my life
Singing in my sleep
A stinging reproach against violence
Hoping to cope with the pressures of musical life
Changing my values
A leader of people who’re guideless
So doing add to collection
The title of blind leading blind leading blind leading
Blind leading blind leading blind
Dangerous rages and amplified airing of anger
Repression of feeling
Preserved for a later date
The search for compassion
And attributes found in those younger
Finding, however, unaccountable harrowing hate
Craving reaction
A hideous terminal hunger
Starving for life in a world with so much on its plate
Singing in my sleep
Songs of such beauty and sadness
Earth’s emotions enraptured
But the songs fade away when I wake
