sleeper

The gloom of my tired soul Is reflecting in myself Between us There lies a kind of sad seclusion The shining of the moon Floods the streets And endless lines of houses I can hear the echo of my footsteps When did I start to devote myself Entirely to the sleep? And when I dream of a different world There is no reason left for fear There's nothing that depresses me No grief no sentimentality Nothing but deep deep sleep Finally at home I am wrapped up in a deeper darkness And I'm unable To think about solutions The sleep comes over me Like the flood overflows the beach The moment I wake up Let me feel forsaken Let me feel forsaken When did I start to devote myself Entirely to the sleep? And when I dream of a different world There is no reason left for fear There's nothing that depresses me No grief no sentimentality Nothing but deep deep sleep When did I start to devote myself Entirely to the sleep? And when I dream of a different world There is no reason left for fear There's nothing that depresses me No grief no sentimentality Nothing but deep deep sleep
