Sleepwalker

[Verse 1]

I lived my life alone before you

And with those that I'd never succeeded to love

And I grew so accustomed to that kind of solitude

I fought you, I did not know how to give it up

[Verse 2]

Before you, had I ever known love

Or had I only known misuse of the power another had over me?

The power another had over me

[Verse 3]

I crossed the country and I carried no key

Couldn't I look up at the stars from anywhere?

And sometimes I did, I felt ancient

But still I sought peace and it never came to me

[Verse 4]

They often spoke as though I had been set free

But I traveled only in service of my dreams

I stood before them all, I was a sleepwalker

[Verse 5]

Couldn't hold my misery down, not even for you

It bore me on all the places I've ever gone

And I grew so accustomed to that kind of solitude

But I long for you now even when you just leave the room

[Verse 6]

Of all the roads and the cities that I passed through

And of all the eyes I have searched inside

The one sense of permanence that I came to feel was mine

Only beneath your gaze
