Sleepy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I woke up from a sound sleep
They were all around me
Their black eyes shone
Small polished stones
I found I couldn't move
They took me through the roofs
But I was sleepy and it was easy
To fall back to sleep
But I was sleepy and it was easy
To fall back to sleep
Blood and glass on my bare feet
I went wild through pine trees
A black car slowed, noises on the phone
The stars came falling down
All the lights went out
But I was sleepy and it was easy
To fall back to sleep
