Pardon Us - Sleepwalk

Stopped for a minute, only for a minute
Rested my eyes, next thing I knew
Looks like I did it
Dropped myself right in it
Tell me it's a dream
'cos it can't be true
I was drifting
Seemed no sense in lifting
A finger just yet
I had time to throw away
So I threw it. Man, I fucking blew it
Got to wake and face the day

How the hell did I get here
In this unfamiliar place?
Shut my eyes half a life ago
Now I'm waking up with egg on my face
All this talk of tough choices and responsibility
It's like a lullaby to me

Stopped for a second, only for a second
Rested my head and I woke up here
Wait just a second, this isn't what I reckoned
I'm losing track of everything that I hold dear
I was snoozing. Seemed no sense in losing any
Precious sleep - thought the years were on my side
But they're against me. The hour glass is empty
And there's nowhere left to hide
Sleepwalk
I don't want to wake up, so I'll just keep sleepwalking on
Gone to wrong to fix up, so I'll just keep sleepwalking on
Yeah I fucked it all up, so I'll just keep sleepwalking on
