Sleeping Time by Boom Crash Opera Lyrics

As I lie
In my chamber I am waiting
For a guilty lover to come crawling home
Close my eyes
I can hear the night-house talking
I am snaking out my feelers
Through the halls and under doorways

I lie awake at sleeping time
Awake at sleeping time

What in the world?
What in the world's happening to me?
Heaven's above
Heaven's above, this is killing me

In this state I'm almost frantic
I move out in all directions
There are bodies moving outside
There's a chill as I brush past them
I lie wakе at sleeping time
Awake at sleeping time

What in thе world?
What in the world's happening to me?
Heaven's above
Heaven's above, this is killing me

Through the walls I can hear breathing
Down the hall reluctant footsteps
You have come to do your penance
Doing nothing, you can do no more
I am in the ground, I'm sinking
Buried in the ground, I'm sinking

I lie awake at sleeping time
Awake at sleeping time

What in the world?
What in the world's happening to me?
Heaven's above
Heaven's above, this is killing me

I'm fading, I'm failing
What in the world is happening to me?
I'm drifting, I'm shifting
What in the world is happening to me?
