Sleep for Sleepers - Statelines |
|
I?ve been stretching every word miles apart from each other. |
|
And I?ve been starving states. |
|
While you?ve been miles away. |
|
To the tired eyes conversing in the scenes they are rehearsing. |
|
Have I been begging you to stay? |
|
You paint my eyes when they are tired. |
|
By miles as far as the eye can see. |
|
When I don?t know who to believe. |
|
When your bones could compare to the places that I?ve seen. |
|
And the states that I?ve starved will insist on chasing me. |
|
It seems I?m begging you to stay. |
|
And I?ve been pacing through these rooms |
|
statelines apart from each other. |
|
And I have starved the air. |
|
I have starved myself. |
|
Spend the afternoon on the ground. |
|
Brighter eyes for every town. |
|
Each city is like a disease. |
|
You paint my eyes when they are tired. |
|
By miles as far as the eye can see. |
|
When I don?t know who to believe. |
|
When your bones could compare to the places that I?ve seen. |
|
And the states that I?ve starved will insist on chasing me. |
|
It seems I?m begging you to stay. |
|
Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, ohhh. |
|
You paint my eyes when they are tired. |
|
By miles as far as the eye can see. |
|
When I don?t know who to believe. |
|
When your bones could compare to the places that I?ve seen. |
|
And the states that I?ve starved will insist on chasing me. |
|
It seems I?m begging you to stay. |
|
Begging you to stay-ay. |
