lyrics

How I dream of dreamless sleep
For a shroud's become my sheet
Black candles are dripping
Hot wax over me.
And I find myself in a raging sea
Tsumami crashes me
Rocks the size of England
Hover, trapping me.

And I wake to find the world's off-key
But who has time to listen to me?
Dreamless sleep.

Scared of night, I seize the day
And stretch it out like clay
But midnight hands come and push me down
Back where they can play

With my mind with no escape
I'm forced to drift through Breughel's landscape
Dreamless sleep.

In Robin's house the tigers chase
Me through the gloomy place
I shut the door and they come banging
One day I'll lose the race.

One day I'll lose.
One day I'll lose.
One day I'll lose.
