Lyrics

Sleep

[Verse 1: Daniel Lorca]

Step in my shoes, wait 'till you see the big flash now

Glued to the sheets, sleep with the sheep all month long

Easy to please, hard to believe it's a tease

Stuck in a rut, we don't give a fuck if we're us

Lie in a haze, hope it's a phase and not hate

You know that I know that you know that I know that you know

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

[Chorus: Matthew Caws, Both]

I try to open my eyes to the days going by

But they're trashing everything to keep it hypnotized

I'm hypnotized, I'm hypnotized

I got the poison in me but it's amplified

Amplified, amplified

[Verse 2: Matthew Caws]

Step in my shoes, wait 'til you see the big flash now

Lie in a haze, hope it's a phase and not hate

Easy to please, hard to believe it's a tease

You know that I know that you know that I know that you know

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

I want you to kiss me

[Chorus: Matthew Caws, Both]

I try to open my eyes to the days going by

But they're trashing everything to keep it hypnotized

I'm hypnotized

[Outro: Matthew Caws, Both]
