lyrics

You feed me sleeping pills while you’re numbing my chest,
slowly tracing my heart injecting casual sex.
And once the monitor beeps and I am under duress,
you sooth my body with your body like a temptress.
I am paralyzed. I’m a moth to your flame.
It comes as no surprise that I can barely stutter your name
Sweat and cold from your touch, every night it’s the same
While we’re kissing, something’s missing. You just dug the knife in.

(OH!)
I want it back--that love you stole from me
Sleepwalking in the hallways, and I’m missing you like always
(OH!)
I want us back the way we used to be.
Like the pictures in the hallways, sleepwalking with you always

Stop starting me up, only to power me down.
Your most complacent machine’s the new sheriff in town
Now the prey’s in pursuit and I’m praying aloud
that I’ll be steady getting ready for the showdown.
I see fear in your eyes. You’ve my heart in your hand
If I could take it, you’d be finished, but I’m only a man.
My triumphant return, but I’ve nowhere to land
now I’m thinking that I’m sinking and we’re starting over.

(OH!)
I want it back--that love you stole from me
Sleepwalking in the hallways, and I’m missing you like always
(OH!)
I want us back the way we used to be.
Like the pictures in the hallways, sleepwalking with you

(OH!)
I want it back--that love you stole from me
Sleepwalking in the hallways, and I’m missing you like always
(OH!)
I want us back the way we used to be.
Like the pictures in the hallways, sleepwalking with you always
