wallflowers giri'sinde bahsettiğim beni ilhamla sırılsıklam eden, başkalarına olmasa da bana psikedelik bir baskı kuran parçadır. "sleepwalker take this knife, you may see someone tonight" dediğinde post-nükleer bir rüyada kendimi bulup bütün dünyayı tasvir edesim gelir. öyle ya da böyle bir gün hikayesini yazacağım, tek basımlık da olsa matbu hale getirip sahipleneceğim kitabımdır.
"maybe ı could be the one they adore
that could be my reputation
ıt's where ı'm from that lets them think ı'm a whore
ı'm an educated virgin
sleepwalker, don't be shy
now don't open your eyes tonight
you'll be the one that defends my life
while ı'm dead asleep dreamin'
cupid, don't draw back your bow
sam cooke didn't know what ı know
ı'll never be your valentine
the sleepwalker in me
and god only know that ı've tried
let me in, let me drown or learn how to swim
just don't leave me at the window
ı could be the one to be your next best friend
you may need someone to hold you
sleepwalker, take this knife
you may see someone tonight
you'd be the one that saves my life
when ı'm dead asleep dreamin'
cupid, don't draw back your bow
sam cooke didn't know what ı know
ı'll never be your valentine
the sleepwalker in me
and god only know that ı've tried
ı'm in your movie and everyone looks sad
but ı can hear you, your voice, the laughtrack
but you never saw my best scene
the one where ı sleep
sleepwalk into your dreams
now, sleepwalker, what's my line
ıt's only a matter of time
until ı learn to open up my eyes
when ı'm dead asleep dreamin'
cupid, don't draw back your bow
sam cooke didn't know what ı know
ı'll never be your valentine
the sleepwalker in me
now, the sleepwalker in me
now, the sleepwalker in me
and god only know that ı've tried"
ı should be calling collect from jail
for the things ı commit each night in my head
like last night in my sleep ı got to snuff you
but then ı woke up again, safe in my little bed
no one is safe when ı close my eyes; ı come to take your life
ı get to force your untimely disappearance
each night in my dreams, when ı'm fast asleep
ı close my eyes and you just vanish soon as ı
lay down my head when ı'm dead to the whole wide world
no one is safe when ı close my eyes; ı come to take your life
and then ı wake up and it was all just a dream
and everything is the same
sleepwalker - did ı give you concrete shoes?
and throw you off of a bridge
sleepwalker - when ı lay down to sleep
pray your soul's mine to keep, ı feel you near me
go to sleep, sleepwalker
just taking a stroll; don't go to sleep! here's some toothpicks for your eyes!
you always make an excellent cadaver
ı roll your body up in a carpet to make music in the
trunk of my limousine, wrapped up in a rug
a fitting end, is that ı send you up the river like a punk
no one is safe when ı close my eyes; ı come to take your life
the angel of death is pissed off at me again
just because ı got to put you out of my misery
ıt doesn't matter, ı am without fear
now you're dead, ı won't shed another bloody tear for you
no one is safe when ı close my eyes; ı come to take your life
ı'm calling down the thunder, then you'll sleep with the fishes
the answer to all of my wishes
sleepwalker - did ı tell you ı was in movies?
then dump you garroted, lying naked in a ditch
sleepwalker - everyday, another way, ı know you can hear me
solo - mustaine
solo - drover
ı think you'd look nice in a colombian necktie
should stop your tongue from wagging the dog
no more stupidity from you, as ı pull your tongue through
for a smile from ear to ear, now there's nothing to hear
no one is safe when ı close my eyes; ı come to take your life
and then ı wake up and it was all just a dream
and everything is still the same
sleepwalker - did ı give you concrete shoes?
and throw your body off of a bridge
sleepwalker - when ı lay down to sleep
pray your soul is mine to keep, ı feel you near me
sleepwalker - or did ı tell you ı was in movies?
then dump you garroted, lying naked in a ditch
sleepwalker - everyday, another way, ı know you can hear me
sleepwalker - did ı buy you the farm?
put a horse head in your bed
sleepwalker - when ı lay down to sleep
pray your soul is mine to keep, ı feel you near me
sleepwalker - everyday
everyday another way
sleepwalker - when ı lay down to sleep
pray your soul is mine to keep, ı know you can hear me
