Death Dream - Frightened Rabbit

It was dawn and the kitchen light was still on

I stepped in, found the suicide asleep on the floor

An open mouth, screams and makes no sound

Apart from the ring of the tinnitus of silence

You had your ear to the ground

White noise, I don’t know if there’s breathing or not

Butterflied arms tell me that this one has flown

Blood seems black, against the skin of your porcelain back

A still life is the last I will see of you, a painting of a panic attack

You died in my sleep last night

You died in your sleep last night

You died in your sleep last night

You died in my sleep last night

You died in my sleep last night

You died in your sleep last night

You died in your sleep last night

You died in your sleep last night

You died in my sleep last night

You died in your sleep last night

(Even now, when asleep, I’ll tread with care)

Death dreams you don’t forget

It’s been a while since I dreamed this

Even now, when asleep, I’ll tread with care

Death dreams you don’t forget

It’s been a while since I dreamed this

Even now, when asleep, I’ll tread with care

Death dreams you don’t forget

It’s been a while since I dreamed this

Even now, when asleep, I’ll tread with care

Death dreams you don’t forget

It’s been a while since I dreamed this

Even now, when asleep, I’ll tread with care
