Sleepwalker.
Wonder, wonder aloud.
Sleepwalker drifting through the crowd.
Do not object to her love unrequited,
Dear, watch your head, don’t get excited.
Sweetest sleepwalker plummeting downstairs,
How do you rest with blood in your hair?
Darling sleepwalker, surely you’re faking?
Blood oozing down, you must be aching.
Sleepwalker, you’re dangerous and it frightens me so,
I cannot wake you but only watch where you go.
Mumbling, like you’ve been known to do…
Dejected, my sweet, your life is nearly through.
Sleepwalker, sleepwalker, you won't know what happened.
Blonde hair matted red, you aren’t even saddened.
Piddling about, feeling for knives,
I wonder if you would stop if you opened your eyes?
Wonder, wonder, wonder silent.
Sleepwalker drifting through the riot.
Sleepwalker drifting through the crowd.
Do not object to her love unrequited,
Dear, watch your head, don’t get excited.
Sweetest sleepwalker plummeting downstairs,
How do you rest with blood in your hair?
Darling sleepwalker, surely you’re faking?
Blood oozing down, you must be aching.
Sleepwalker, you’re dangerous and it frightens me so,
I cannot wake you but only watch where you go.
Mumbling, like you’ve been known to do…
Dejected, my sweet, your life is nearly through.
Sleepwalker, sleepwalker, you won't know what happened.
Blonde hair matted red, you aren’t even saddened.
Piddling about, feeling for knives,
I wonder if you would stop if you opened your eyes?
Wonder, wonder, wonder silent.
Sleepwalker drifting through the riot.
