Sleepsong - Bastille

Sleepsong Lyrics

Don't talk to strangersOh, in the strangest dreams, walking by your side
It is the hole you impose upon your life
When you're out, loneliness, it crawls up in the ground
It's what you feel, but can't articulate out loudOh you go to sleep on your own and you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone
It's a last resortAll you want is someone onto whom you can cling
Your mother warned of strangers and the dangers they may bring
Your dreams and memories are blurring into one
The scenes which hold the waking world slowly come undoneYou'll come undoneOh, you go to sleep on your own,
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone,
It's a last resortYou go to sleep on your own
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone, it's a last resortOhDon't talk to strangers,
And don't walk into danger
Don't talk to strangers,
And don't walk into dangerOh you go to sleep on your own,
And you wake each day with your thoughts

And it scares you being alone,
It's a last resortYou go to sleep on your own,
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone,
It's a last resortDon't talk to strangersOh you go to sleep on your own,
And you wake each day with your thoughts
And it scares you being alone,
It's a last resort...
