lyrics

My sleep was rocky and shallow
You walked ankle-deep through my dream
This time puffy-eyed
Last time velveteen

It’s a cruel, cruel trap the mind sets
Leads you smiling through an open door to endless steps

Please stop visiting me when I’m sleeping
It’s the only time I get to see you but I need to
Stop opening the door
Stop opening the door

I guess some buried part of me
Believes that you’re still alive
Oh it thrills me, and it kills me
To see you every night

It’s a cruel, cruel trap the mind sets
Leads you smiling through an open door to endless steps

Please stop visiting me when I’m sleeping
It’s the only time I get to see you but I need to
Stop opening the door
Stop opening the door
I can’t take it anymore
I can’t take it anymore

My dreams cling to me like cobwebs in my sheets
When I wake up I can’t peel them off
With every morning sun, I forget you’re gone

Please stop visiting me when I’m sleeping
It’s the only time I get to see you but I need to
Stop opening the door
Stop opening the door
I can’t take it anymore
I can’t take it anymore
