Sleepsong - Bastille

Oh, in the strangest dreams, walking by your side

It is the hole you impose upon your life

When you’re out, loneliness, it crawls up in the ground

It’s what you feel, but can’t articulate out loud.

Oh you go to sleep on your own and you wake each day with your thoughts

And it scares you being alone

It’s a last resort

All you want is someone onto whom you can cling

Your mother warned of strangers and the dangers they may bring

Your dreams and memories are blurring into one

The scenes which hold the waking world slowly come undone

You’ll come undone

Oh, you go to sleep on your own,

And you wake each day with your thoughts

And it scares you being alone,

It’s a last resort

You go to sleep on your own

And you wake each day with your thoughts

And it scares you being alone, it’s a last resort

OhOhOh…

Don’t talk to strangers,

And don’t walk into danger.

Don’t talk to strangers,

And don’t walk into danger.

Oh you go to sleep on your own,

And you wake each day with your thoughts

And it scares you being alone,

It’s a last resort

You go to sleep on your own,

And you wake each day with your thoughts

And it scares you being alone,

It’s a last resort

Don’t talk to strangers

Oh you go to sleep on your own,

And you wake each day with your thoughts

And it scares you being alone,

It’s a last resort…
