Sleeping At Night

1. When you smile it's like you're waiting for something
To spring from the back of your mind
When you speak it's like you're searching for nothing
Nothing comes quicker than nothing you'll find.

You're the kind of motionless creature
Bites at the heels of the needless seekers
Mouth moves along with the meaningless speaker
Swinging your fists, getting weaker and weaker.

[Chorus:]
I hope you make it alright
I hope you make it alright
Make your mind up, you get right up
And march to the mouth of the meaningless line up
I hope we make it alright
I hope we make it alright
You can sell dust and steal in the daylight
For all that I care just as long as you're sleeping at night.

2. Kindly tell me what you'd like me to say
I will say it for you and get out of your way
Settle down 'cause you're starting to scare us
Looks like you're carelessly wasting away.

Cashing in on what you're believing
Trying to get up on the moveable feasting
Mirrors in the morning you're becoming a beast
Making those ends keeps you moving at least.

[Chorus]
