Sleepwalking Lyrics

Destiny turned her face
Nightmares and violent shapes
State of dreaming
Has left me numb

Blue eyes and wandering lips
True lies with fingertips
Hidden tales of forbidden
Love

You've left me miserable
Miserable
Miserable
Mis-er-a-ble

Love

You've left me miserable
Miserable
Miserable
Mis-er-a-ble

Maybe we're just sleepwalking
Maybe we're just sleepwalking

Visions of better times
Kingdoms and lilac wine
Why did God fail
To improve us

Teardrops of acid rain
Burning down through my veins
Can't I just sleep for now

Now
Despite my fears
I dance for you
And did what others knew

I
Would care
Would wait
And live again
More desperate
Desperate
Yeah

Maybe we're just sleepwalking
Maybe we're just sleepwalking

Yeah

Maybe we're just sleepwalking
Maybe we're just sleepwalking
Maybe we're just sleepwalking
(Now despite my fears I dance for you)
Maybe we're just sleepwalking
Maybe we're just sleepwalking
(Oh would care would wait and live again)
Maybe we're just sleepwalking
Maybe we're just sleepwalking
Maybe we're just sleepwalking

What is the Meaning of Sleepwalking?

This emotionally charged track delves into the complexities of a tumultuous relationship. The lyrics suggest a sense of disillusionment and despair, as if the protagonist is navigating through life in a dreamlike state - hence the term 'sleepwalking'. The repeated line "You've left me miserable" underscores feelings of heartache and desolation. Yet, there's an undercurrent of resilience and determination seen in lines like "Despite my fears, I dance for you". This could indicate an enduring love or perhaps a struggle to let go. The song beautifully portrays the pain of unrequited or lost love, but also hints at hope and perseverance amid adversity. 🥀💔
