Lyrics
Sleep City
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 feel so damn small
Against the sheer size of our existance
Our roots are stilled buried
Here beneath the sands of time
And time is all we have to bury our hands in the sand
Am I the only one
Who gets excited when I think about
The possiblities of life
Connect and communicate
That's just the life
Please can we just live it
Is what I'm so eager to do
What I'm so eager to do about time
Gravity will pull
Us from this city of sleep
Peaceful entities
Cast into the sea
Flying through time and space
At a thousand miles an hour
Falling into the truth
Into the truth
Into the truth of our time
Do you ever
Ever forget what's all around us
Cause I know I do
Held on a giant ball of rock
Surrouded by dangers
Gravity will pull
Us from this city of sleep
Peaceful entities
Cast into the sea
Our roots are stilled buried
Here beneath the sands of time
And time is all we have to bury our hands in the sand
Flying through time and space
At a thousand miles an hour
Falling into the truth
Into the truth
Into the truth of our time
Am I alone here
Amongst the sleeping city
