You find yourself looking up at night From the bottom of the earth And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore And oh, did your sheep start jumping They grow out their teeth Did they need a little something more, than this? verse 2 The taste of trouble on your lips ‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your thoughts You tell yourself just to turn away But you know you’ve already lost The smell of rain when it’s on a wind Can never be paid in full You try in vain to account for this mess And everything that you stole And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore And oh, did your sheep start jumping They grow out their teeth Did they need a little something more, than this? verse 3 ‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your feet They got you running from this place And now they’re breathing down your neck Your eyes look lonely in your face I see you looking just out of frame What is it pulling you there? ‘Cause things can never the stay the same So what is keeping you here? And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore And oh, did your sheep start jumping They grow out their teeth And need a little something now Every time you think, well they’d be biting at your thoughts And every time you blink Well you’ll be so damn far But you want more, than this Outro I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
