Sleepy Head

We'll fight the fire, with the flame
We've walked this road before
We'll walk the road again
The horizon, was blocked with haze
I felt vacant, like a letter with no resting place

I have no idea where I'm going
And not a memory of where I've been
She lives in a house made of glass
And I keep throwing stones at her windows
Away from the wars and mistakes
Is a room and she sleeps alone solo

Wake up sleepy head she said to me
We have a city on our door step and a set of feet to keep me
High in the clouds over the busy streets
I'm in love when my eyes are open
When I'm asleep my dreams take over

I fear the future and how it's told
Will someone love me, or will I die with no heart at all?
I've drowned in emotion, beneath a heavy stone
I try to care for people, although I have my own broken bones

I have no idea what I'm doing
And not a memory of what I've done
I'm playing with fire all the time
And I don't give a damn for the outcome
I walk with a skip in my step
'Cause I know that someday I'll be someone

Wake up sleepy head she said to me
We have a city on our door step and a set of feet to keep me
High in the clouds over the busy streets
I'm in love when my eyes are open
When I'm asleep my dreams take over
