Songtext von Sleepless Incidental

Sightless he watches the columns collide As he wanders the canyons relentlessly wide Empires are burning, the rain cuts his skin And in every direction the sound closes in Time, only time, have I And already I'm not okay He falls in with the unwashed and unfed He will sleep for the first time, no crib for a bed In these extraordinary lanes He is blind again, unaware still From the greatest height and to furthest end Without association, he will bend And walkin g with the wounded, old and thin Made to be paraded, bring the misfit in How to overpower the avenues of steel In my illusion, what of this is real? Sleepless incidental, what I really need Is how to now avoid the full stampede I'm only taking time And I'm not where I want to be now
